Teaching Notes
Our newsletter Teaching Notes is emailed on a monthly basis to Trent faculty and instructors. The newsletters contain helpful tips, resources, and announcements about our events and activities.
Open Educational Resources
In 2021 and 2022 several projects at Trent received over $900,000 through the province's Virtual Learning Strategy (VLS) to develop and improve digital content and capacity. See what we have done with that money.
Assessment Resources
While remote learning led to significant challenges around assessment, it also offered opportunities to rethink approaches to assignments and exams.
Teaching and Learning Resource Hub
Recordings of recent and popular workshops and lectures in the Media Centre as well as a wealth of resources and supports on SoTL and Research Ethics
Hybrid Teaching Resources
Hybrid courses combine face-to-face instruction with online learning in order to take advantage of the strengths of both in-person and digital spaces; students attend some in-person class meetings and also engage with a significant amount of content asynchronously online.
Supports for Teaching Assistants
The Trent Teaching Commons offers guidance and resources to help all GTAs develop teaching skills and expand their pedagogical knowledge. Our programming includes online materials and synchronous orientation activities to help GTAs get comfortable with their roles and responsibilities. GTAs who complete our orientation program can be recognized through an Introduction of Graduate Teaching micro-credential. And, for those who wish to delve further into higher education pedagogy, the TTC offers a Graduate Teaching Certificate program.
