Upcoming online teaching webinars – NEW!

We have just scheduled another series of webinars for the next two weeks to help with converting to remote teaching. Most of these webinars are just 30 minutes. Go ahead and register even if you have a time conflict; we will be emailing out links to the recordings and handouts after the webinars.

Hang in there during these challenging times. We can do this, but only if we do it together.
