Athough your immediate focus is to ensure that your CLIP work is useful to those involved, students benefit when the CLIP work is congruent with the college’s overall approach to ensuring high-quality teaching and learning. If you can link your work to related work on campus, your work is likely to have a greater impact and benefit for students. The college’s student and program assessment activities, program review, staff development, and institutional planning typically are important to understand. Your college website is a good place to start to learn more about these activities. 

Stay informed about other work at the college. By doing so, you can position the CLIP work to build a culture of inquiry, as well as high-quality teaching and learning, throughout the college.
