Curricular technology support is built on the idea that technical staff consult and connect faculty with the appropriate technology to support their teaching. Through our
liaison model, this is accomplished through one-on-one consultation, connecting faculty to appropriate technology resources and resource providers, developing custom solutions, and co-teaching technology workshops.
Specialty technology exists all over campus from the Sciences to Media to the Library. Your liaison can help you figure out what resources exist and where, and point you in the right direction to find the most appropriate technology to fit your teaching needs. Listed below are the primary enterprise-wide technology resources available to faculty to support their teaching.
Moodle
Moodle is Evergreen's Learning Management System (LMS) and provides a foundation for
course management on the web. Moodle supports structured course-work with tools inlcuding
discussion forums, assignments, quizzes, peer assessment and many more. Moodle at Evergreen is
password protected and requires enrollment in a course or program before access to the site is available.
Wordpress
WordPress is a
web publishing platform with a focus on
ease of use, aesthetics, and web standards.
WordPress in the curriculum can be used to create
publicly accessible websites including
curricular sites, blogs,
faculty professional sites and
student academic journals. Many faculty use a public WordPress curricular site
in conjunction with a private Moodle site.

MediaWiki
Wikis are most often used when faculty want their students to create an online,
collaborative knowledge-base. Evergreen uses the same base install of Mediawiki found at
Wikipedia.org but can be customized to meet your needs. Some faculty have used wikis at Evergreen as a staging ground for student publishing at Wikipedia.

Program Fileshares
Orca Program Shares are
networked file space accessible only by the Faculty and registered students for a particular program. They can be accessed from both on and off campus. These folders are cycled and purged every quarter in order to provide sufficient workspace needed to meet curricular needs.
