- The individual consultation option totally changed my online learning course design. I am so much happier with how it looks and the simplicity of its use for students.
- Transitioning from industry to academia is difficult. TLC has provided the support I need to be successful - or at least work towards successful - in a meaningful way. I can't tell you how much I appreciate what you all do for faculty. Thank you.
- The TLC reviewed my online class, gave critical feedback, helped me organize, plan, and make material more available to learners.
- TLC has helped me learn how to use teaching tools and incorporate them into my classes.
- I gained some help on making Canvas more palatable to my students.
- TLC has helped me problem solve and find better ways to reach students.
- Exposes me to new strategies, assists me in reflecting, and connects me to colleagues. I always walk away with a nugget that can improve my teaching, be it online or in person.
- The TLC has allowed me to look at my teaching in a more holistic approach.
- Learning the Canvas program has helped some but I need more. It is very hard to manage with time and schedules.
- The Canvas "Show-and-Tell" session have been very helpful in seeing what other instructors do in Canvas. I've implemented many of them in my Canvas courses. I also met individually with a TLC learning designer to "clean-up" my courses with improved way finding methods. These were a HUGE help in making things easier to navigate for my students.
- I have appreciated the help that the TLC has given me. I would have appreciated the same sort of help when I was adjunct. I am glad that you are including them more now.
