CASTL was created by The Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching in 1998 to establish and refine standards for the critical review of teaching and learning by faculty members in college and university classrooms. CASTL also helps to establish new settings and forms for the examination of teaching and learning so that faculty members can exchange information and build upon the work of their colleagues.
During the 2005-2006 academic year, this group of Carnegie Scholars will work on projects that explore the integration of learning across courses, over time, and between campus and community life. This “integrative learning” helps undergraduates connect an often fragmented educational landscape and develop the habits of mind that prepare them to make informed judgments in their personal, professional, and civic life.
Carnegie is working on this particular area of learning with the Association of American Colleges and Universities, and with the Wabash Center of Inquiry in the Liberal Arts, a co-sponsor of the Carnegie Scholars Program.
The 2005-2006 Carnegie Scholars will participate in three residencies at the Foundation’s headquarters in Stanford, Calif., and present their work at professional conferences, attend workshops and institutes, and work with Carnegie Scholars from previous cohorts.
In addition to the Carnegie Scholars Program, CASTL includes a Campus Program for an international group of colleges and universities and a Scholarly and Professional Societies Program that works within academic fields and specialties.
Founded by Andrew Carnegie in 1905 and chartered in 1906 by an act of Congress, The Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching is an independent policy and research center with a primary mission "to do and perform all things necessary to encourage, uphold, and dignify the profession of the teacher and the cause of higher education." The improvement of teaching and learning is central to all of the work of the Foundation. The Foundation is located in Stanford, Calif.
