The TEF (Teaching Effectiveness Framework) is a toolkit developed by The Institute for Learning and Teaching at Colorado State University. The TEF also serves as a resource and consultation model for guided inquiry into pedagogy. It is composed of seven domains of practice for all classroom modalities. At the University of West Georgia, the Institute for Faculty Excellence incorporates the TEF as a workshop and guide on connecting development resources with teaching goals.
