Teaching Support
No matter if you teach online or on campus, CITL provides a variety of services that support your teaching practice and delivery at Memorial University.
Featured Resources
Review our featured resources each semester for self-paced guides and recorded webinars that will help you and your students succeed. Topics include getting started, recycling material from previous offerings, course syllabi, navigating disruptions and changes, reviewing assessment strategies, creating a positive learning environment and more.
Teach Online
Both online and face-to-face courses can benefit from using an online learning environment, and we can help. Using the Brightspace (D2L) learning management system, we can help you activate your course site and organize your course content so that you can better connect with and engage your students in their learning.
Need to develop a face-to-face course for online delivery? Our instructional designers can work with you to design and develop your course to complement your teaching strategy, including:
- Choosing suitable educational tools
- Providing support to best present course materials online
- Supporting you in course delivery once it reaches the maintenance stage

Instructional Design- Create dynamic online content for your face-to-face course to better connect with and engage your students in their learning.
