Teaching and Learning Services and Resources

We support educator development in a variety of ways. Some of these are outlined in further detail below. 

TL Pro Services - Teaching and Learning Professional Support (TL Pro) offers confidential and individualized assistance in preparing, designing, enhancing, managing, and delivering course content for any course modality.

Class Observations - Want confidential, peer-level feedback on your teaching? Want to know what we believe is an effective teaching practice? Read more about our service and the observation framework. 

Consultations - Want to talk to trained experts about course design, teaching methods, educational technology, multimedia development, and delivery in alternative formats? We offer all that and more. 

Resources for Ongoing, Independent Learning - Like to learn at your own pace or stay tapped in? Check out our recommendations for teaching-related blogs, podcasts, MOOCs, and training videos. 

Student Surveys - Want feedback from your learners or a mechanism for providing them with a voice before the end of the semester? View our survey framework and related service here or contact us to request a sample survey. 

Blackboard Review - Is your course site in Blackboard a bit of a mess? Do you make it easy for students to find what they need? Are you using features to maximize results? A team member will confidentially review your Blackboard course shell and share suggestions with you. We can even help make the changes you select based on our feedback.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) Resources - With the rapid advancement of AI, higher education institutions must engage in thoughtful discussion about AI’s impact on teaching, learning, curriculum, research, careers, and the broader societal implications. This curated list of resources is for information only and does not reflect CMU’s stance on or preference for AI tools.
