Do you ever design learning materials or programs? Or does your work at ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½ aim at fostering productive learning environments for or promoting individual growth in students, faculty, staff, and\/or community members? If yes, you are welcome to come find Wells in Dana. They\/she can be a sounding board for your ideas, a confidant for your concerns, a handyperson for challenges, or a collaborator on almost any teaching\/learning-focused project.
