EDUCATIONAL NEWS

Here, we have a link to our Professional Development Canvas Instance, as well as our Teaching Resources and Templates to help you knock your class materials out of the ballpark!

TEACHING RESOURCES

Let鈥檚 explore together!  Many teaching practices can be learned through workshops and articles; however, there is great value in getting one-on-one support. Our consultations are a place to discuss one鈥檚 teaching style, classroom goals, and interactions in a safe and supportive environment.  Consultations are available with CTE staff members on campus or online via zoom.

Here are some examples of the types of support we offer:

  • Course Design, Development, and Delivery
  • Instructional Strategies
  • Instructional Technology
  • Student Engagement
  • Time Management
  • Online and Hybrid Teaching
  • And Many more.

We are here to support your individual needs!
