We're the Center for New Designs in Learning and Scholarship, Georgetown's center for teaching innovation, research, and excellence.
At CNDLS, we enrich the academic experience by supporting faculty and the broader teaching community at Georgetown through a diverse array of programs & initiatives, services, and comprehensive teaching resources.
Staff at CNDLS have been serving as leaders and advisors in both understanding and implementing generative AI across campus.
CNDLS has launched programming and initiatives aiming to enhance student learning and engagement through the creative and responsible integration of AI-supported tools across various academic domains at Georgetown.
Experiential learning immerses students in hands-on activities, real-world scenarios, and practical situations toward the goal of promoting deep understanding and skill development.
These principles are baked into CNDLS programs and consultation work, from funding a range of experiential projects to collaborating with partners also invested in this form of engaged learning.
As higher education and Georgetown’s campus focuses on equipping students with the skills to seek common understanding within a polarized landscape, we’ve augmented our existing programming and developed new resources to prioritize this area of work.
As Georgetown's home for pedagogy, we provide faculty with space and opportunity to focus on their teaching practice, individually and in community. Each of our programs, initiatives, services, and resources are designed to meet you where you are.
