Teaching Resources

Faculty resources on teaching provide valuable support and professional development opportunities for educators to enhance their instructional practices. These resources often include workshops, seminars, and online courses designed to improve pedagogical skills, incorporate innovative teaching methods, and stay updated on the latest educational research and trends. Additionally, faculty resources may offer access to teaching consultants, peer mentoring programs, and teaching centers where faculty members can collaborate, exchange ideas, and receive guidance on effective teaching strategies.

SDS assists in identifying appropriate accommodations and it is the student’s responsibility to submit notice of accommodations to instructors and campus departments as needed.
