Teaching Support

The Center for Teaching Support offers production assistance for academic courses. CTS assists faculty in the areas of curriculum development, instructional materials design and development, and in various methodologies of curriculum delivery. Faculty should email their production requests to the CTS Director by the last day of drop/add each semester. At that time, an official production list is generated and designers assigned to instructors. Requests sent after the deadline are added to the next semester’s production list. All video requests require Distance Learning Dean approval before being added to the production list. Faculty meet with their assigned designers for an initial consultation meeting, then work face-to-face or virtually to complete their production requests. Faculty should schedule on-on-one appointments to receive course development assistance and/or support. Please contact the CTS Director if you have questions concerning your production needs or timeline.
