The mission of the Center for Teaching Innovation is to foster a culture of teaching and learning that is engaged, innovative, transformative, and purposeful, through faculty and organizational development.
To that end, we offer a range of events, services, and consultations throughout the year. Anyone in the UNO community who teaches, aspires to teach, or supports instructional activities at UNO is welcome to participate.
Users can log in from any Moodle link on the UNO website, from a Moodle tile on their myapps.uno.edu pages, or by going directly to moodle.uno.edu. Please check our Moodle help page for information and updates.
Ungrading Faculty Reading Group
The CTI is excited to create a faculty reading group this Spring. Our first topic is Ungrading. Together, we'll explore rethinking how and why we assess our students. We'll figure out how we can use the core principles of Ungrading to help with student success and retention specifically for the UNO community. Number of meetings and times are to be determined based on availability of membership. Click here to express interest in joining our reading group.
Student "Online Learning at UNO" Page
When your students have questions about online learning at UNO, point them to UNO's new Online Learning webpage. UNO's Online Learning webpage helps your students understand the types of online learning available at UNO, as well as guides them through basic tools and skills needed to be a successful student. The Online Learning webpage is also included in every Moodle shell under "Student Online Learning Resources."
