Online Teaching Resources

Faculty Workshops

Every semester we offer a series of one-hour “how-to” workshops to get you started with some basic online activities. This series covers everything from giving live or recorded lectures, using various discussion board tools, giving an online test, and providing a platform for asynchronous student presentations.

Recent workshops have been focused on providing support to faculty teaching in Ultra courses. More information and resources are available on the following website:
