Summary:
For faculty in most settings, teaching is a private act, limited to the teacher and students; it is rarely evaluated by professional peers. "The result, " writes Carnegie Foundation President Lee S. Shulman, "is that those who engage in innovative acts of teaching rarely build upon the work of others; nor can others build upon theirs." CASTL seeks to render teaching public, subject to critical evaluation, and usable by others in both the scholarly and the general community.

Note:
CASTL represents a major initiative of The Carnegie Foundation. Launched in 1998, the program builds on a conception of teaching as scholarly work as proposed in the 1990 report, SCHOLARSHIP RECONSIDERED, by former Carnegie Foundation President Ernest Boyer, and on the 1997 follow-up publication, SCHOLARSHIP ASSESSED, by Charles Glassick, Mary Taylor Huber, and Gene Maeroff.
