TEACHx, a fun day set aside to explore teaching and learning, will be held on May 18, 2022, in the Norris Student Center. We encourage you to join the Distance Learning staff as we take some time out to think about creative, effective teaching as we listen to a variety of presenters talk about their recent experiments and what they have learned from them. We encourage you to learn more and register at TEACHx.com.
The School of Professional Studies’ learning designers will present some of their innovative work.
- David Noffs and Assistant Director Shannon Castle will be part of the digital poster session and talk about the new e-portfolio tool used by the IDS (Information Design and Strategy) master’s program.
