MLFTC instills the highest standards of teaching excellence in tomorrow’s educators by modeling those standards in our own faculty. You have several resources available for ensuring your own teaching excellence.
Academic integrity
Faculty members are required to enhance academic integrity in the classroom, in person and online. This includes not only enforcing policies and sanctions around academic integrity, but promoting a culture in which we educate students on what it means to act with integrity in their academic careers and lives. Additional information and faculty resources on academic integrity are available from the office of the university provost, including:
