The Center for Innovative and Engaged Learning Opportunities (CIELO) enhances teaching in support of meaningful, deep, and sustained learning experiences while supporting the scholarship of teaching, learning, and engagement. CIELO brings together four CSUN Programs: Faculty Development, New Faculty Orientation and Programs, Community Engagement, and Academic First Year Experiences. Founded on the belief that enhanced and improved teaching has a direct and positive impact on student learning and satisfaction, CIELO helps create learning environments that take full advantage of the University’s distinguished faculty, the scholarship of teaching and learning, and the  surrounding community.
