CTE Newsletter - Sep/Oct 2003 (Vol 16, No 1)

Briefly Noted...

  • The CTE offers all interested members of the university community a weekly email containing teaching tips, suggestions, and news about teaching and learning on this campus. The CTE "Weekly News & Tips" offers a brief and informative "tip" geared to the time of semester and alerts you of upcoming campus events involving teaching and learning. If you are not receiving this email and would like to be added to the "News and Tips" mailing list, contact Pam Milloy.

  • The CTE's Web pages have been given a facelift! While maintaining our overall organization and design, the CTE has reorganized and updated the Services, Resources, and Fellowships sections of the page. With Teaching at ISU moving to an online format, the CTE will also have more frequent Web updates and more easily accessible archives. This is still a work in progress, so please check back periodically to see what is new, and contact Susan Yager with your comments and suggestions.

    Don't forget to check our full schedule of events, especially the Teaching and Learning Circles for this semester and the special events planned for the CTE's 10th Anniversary Celebration.

  • The Instructional Technology Center is offering a full slate of workshops and seminars on classroom teaching and course management. These are especially helpful for instructors of large classes or anyone wishing to learn about the WebCT course management tools, and for anyone contemplating online teaching.
