Learning Module: Developing Your Teaching Dossier
In higher education, teaching dossiers are a requirement for many job applications, promotion and/or tenure, and teaching award nominations. Developing a teaching dossier takes significant time to prepare. This module has been designed to guide you through the reflective and transformative process.
Learning Module: Blended Learning
Blended learning is when a course integrates both the physical classroom and online learning. The purpose of this module is to provide instructors practical strategies and the opportunity to critically reflect on how to best integrate both physical and online spaces to create a blended learning environment.
Learning Module: Designing Online Assessments
Assessments are primarily developed to demonstrate achievement of course learning outcomes and serve as a motivational factor in driving student decision-making. This online module provides useful information about how to implement different types of assessments that are aligned to course learning outcomes.
Learning Technology Coaches
Learning Technology Coaches support the implementation of learning technology tools as the campus community engages in online, blended and remote teaching.
They are available to support academic staff design and implement their online courses, adapt to new learning technologies and assist with session scheduling and facilitation.
