Documentation for Important Recent Changes
Teaching Center Discussion Forum
The Teaching Center has created a discussion forum in Microsoft Teams where instructors can connect with colleagues with similar interests to share ideas and ask questions. This is a peer-to-peer forum. For AS&E teaching support offices, see the help and teaching support section below.
The forum provides themed channels so that instructors can select to participate only in their areas of interest. Microsoft Teams allows instructors to connect through a variety of methods, including discussion board posts, chat, and video and audio calls.
To enroll in the Teaching Center Discussion Forum, email teachingcenter@rochester.edu using the email subject line “Enroll in Teaching Forum.”
