Resources

We try to complement your domain-expertise with evidence-based instructional design strategies. We externalize what we’ve learned via our self-directed guides, tool comparison charts, course design modules, customizable templates and other pre-built “jumping off points” that get you ideating and iterating.

EdTech Related Events Calendar

A curated calendar of EdTech related events from around the Faculty and the University.

Start Strong Modules

Start Strong is a series of self-directed modules, short demos, and hands-on workshops, designed to get you ready to teach your courses. They are heavy on practical implementation, but also feature key instructional design principles to help you develop the Quercus course(s) that reflect you and your teaching style.

Module Toolkit

This toolkit provides open access to template documents (as well as examples of those documents in use) to help provide some structure to your module design project.

Lessons Learned Webinar Series

A webinar series to share what has worked (and likely also a bit of what has not worked) with your peers from across FASE and the University. These sessions serve as places to start ideating, share thoughts and concerns, confirm guidelines, select technological tools, and to kickstart your “design for online” process

Active Learning Community of Practice

The technology enhanced active learning (TEAL) community of practice (COP) is a self-driven community that supports you through a process of integrated course design (or redesign), focusing on implementing active learning (technology enhanced or not) within your courses.
