“Agile” Teaching Resources

Earlier this summer, the CTL offered a workshop on ways to make your teaching more agile and responsive regardless of teaching environment.  The video is available at the link here, the slides are available at the link here, and the resources doc is available at the link here.

Templates for Sakai-Based Courses

The CTL, in collaboration with our colleagues at HMC, Scripps, and Pomona, has developed four templates that can inform your course design in Sakai.  These four templates will introduce instructors to 1) a general design which could be applicable in many courses; 2) a design that utilizes the “syllabus” tool; 3) a design that primarily utilizes discussion forums; and 4) a design that uses the “lessons” tool to create a modular course.  Instructions for locating and importing the designs are available at this link.
