Faculty Resources

The ITCs are developing a Faculty Resources organization for the Bryan School faculty in Canvas. All Bryan School faculty and staff are eligible to self-enroll. The organization provides faculty and staff with an introduction and overview of supported instructional technologies and aligning pedagogies. Supported technologies include Box, Camtasia Studio, Canvas, Class Climate, Google Apps, iClicker, ProctorU, Qualtrics, and WebEx.

Supported pedagogical strategies include the flipped classroom, the promising syllabus, the Quality Matters rubric, active learning strategies, classroom assessment techniques, team-based and project-based learning, Universal Design for Learning (UDL), and Understanding by Design (UbD).

The Bryan School ITCs are available for one-on-one and small group consultations on a variety of instructional technologies and pedagogical strategies.  While each ITC is assigned to a department, the ITCs work together collaboratively to support the entire school and you are welcome to seek assistance from either ITC.  To schedule an appointment, send us an email.
