The Center for Learning and Teaching (CLT) presents the CLT Workshop Series Winter ’26: Leveling Up Quantitative Literacy in Your Classes, a hands-on workshop designed to help faculty intentionally strengthen quantitative reasoning in their teaching.
Facilitated by Spencer Scanlan, Associate Professor in the Faculty of Sciences, the session invites participants to revisit the six core quantitative reasoning (QR) competencies and explore practical ways to integrate them more effectively into course assignments. Faculty will analyze sample assignments and student work, identify which QR skills are being developed, and practice “leveling up” learning tasks to better support students’ quantitative literacy.
Participants are encouraged to bring an assignment from one of their courses or come ready to workshop provided examples. The workshop is open to all full-time and adjunct faculty and offers a collaborative space to gain practical ideas, strengthen course design, and connect with colleagues—along with delicious food and quality swag.
