The OIT Teaching and Learning Technologies team provides their “Semester Start Up” prior to each semester as a way for faculty to access the team for consultations, presentations and workshops on Canvas and so much more! Whether faculty, staff or a TA, participants can attend as many sessions as they would like and enjoy a collegial space to plan for and prepare courses (or the courses they might support).
Sessions are held IN PERSON, so that participants can take time to work on course sites during their time with us. Bring your own device, and we will bring breakfast treats, coffee, and lunch.
Our next event:
Fall 2025 Semester Start-Up – Aug 19-20, 2025
