The Faculty Center for Teaching & Learning has instructional technologists available for faculty to collaborate with. We are available to assist instructors in using technology tools for teaching in face-to-face, blended, and online course environments. We partner with faculty to research new, innovative technological tools and to explore effective uses of our current tools. We offer training courses and training tools for faculty. We also provide support or instructional technology.
Whether you would like to share some ideas about using technology in your class, or ask some questions about what tool would work best, or get some one-on-one training, you can contact the Faculty Center or Jackie Hughes directly.
