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.
Canvas
A full-featured Learning Management System and eventual replacement for Moodle. A Canvas site will provide a full suite of online tools including writing feedback tools, built-in rubrics and eportfolios. Due to the newness and complexity of Canvas, an online orientation is available.
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.
