NTC has adopted the 'Seven Principles for Good Practice in Undergraduate Education' by Arthur Chickering and Zelda Gamson (1987). These principles focus on seven different aspects of education. They are intended as guidelines for faculty to enhance teaching and learning. The seven principles are supported by 50 years of research on the way teachers teach and students learn.
