Improved Inclusive Teaching @ UBC
The CLTL and Equity & Inclusion Office has revamped the Inclusive Teaching @ UBC website to help faculty and staff navigate resources more easily. You can now browse materials by topic area or course stage here.
Looking to make your teaching more inclusive? Check out the recording of a previous Forestry-specific inclusive teaching workshop.
Mid-Course Feedback (MCF)
Instructors may want to gauge how students are adjusting with the transition back to in-person learning. A great way to obtain direct input during a course is by collecting informal mid-course feedback. For more tools and information, including quick tips, question guides and resources for implementation, visit the MCF website.
Updated UBC Tool Guides
The UBC Learning Technology Hub has created and updated over 45 UBC Tool Guides offering tips and instructions for a wide variety of online teaching and learning tools, such as Canvas, Kaltura and Turnitin. Have a question about a specific tool? Find answers in the UBC Tool Guides.
