Departmental Philosophy

We believe...

… everything we do reflects the values we hold.  We strive to demonstrate respect, innovation, and a desire to leave the world better off than how we found it.

 … if a system doesn’t work for the people who use it, then the system doesn’t work.  This is true of decision making, learning, and team work.

… systems thinking, continuous improvement, and team problem solving are not just classroom topics but how we approach professional life.

... teaching is important, but learning is critical; evidence of learning should be reviewed and acted upon regularly by the individuals who have the most ability to affect it.

... learners are unique individuals, each with different experiences, natural tendencies, needs, and desires.  (web page: link to HLD model/Educational Philosophy to learn more)
