Keep Teaching!

The Keep Teaching: Academic Continuity Planning page on the Office of the Provost website describes options to continue coursework if meeting with students face-to-face is not possible. CTE, DOIT and the Office of Distributed Learning are providing a series of webinars and virtual drop-in sessions that highlight a wide range of instructional tools and techniques. Find details at Assistance with Teaching Remotely. Faculty can also work with a member of CTE's Instructional Design Team to convert existing courses for online delivery by completing the Instructional Design Consultation Request.

Adapting Large Undergraduate Courses

There are multiple ways to adapt large enrollment classes to provide safety and social distancing. All large course delivery models will differ in effectiveness, feasibility, and implementation options depending on the type of course and pedagogy style being used. Learn how to start and what steps to take on our Adapting Large Undergraduate Courses website.

The coronavirus pandemic has forced many faculty to redesign their courses in order to transition to remote teaching. It can be difficult to implement such a drastic change halfway through the semester, especially for those who have always preferred face-to-face instruction. With remote teaching continuing through the summer term, the instructional designers at the Center for Teaching Excellence are prepared to help faculty every step of the way.
