The IRT Center for Teaching with Technology offers support for faculty for the Fall 2020 semester.

Recorded CTT Webinars

Blackboard Workshop The CTT has recorded a webinar so that faculty can watch it and learn about synchronous and asynchronous teaching with Blackboard. Faculty can watch the entire video, or watch the segment that interests them.

One-on-one Consultations

While we hope that most of you were able to attend one of the workshops, CTT staff is also available for one-on-one consultations about Online, Hybrid, and HyFlex instruction. To make an appointment, please make a Help Desk ticket at wpunj.edu/helpdesk. Choose the Blackboard ticket type and then CTT Faculty Consultation. This is the best way to set up a time to work with one of the CTT instructional designers.

  • Quality Assurance/Quality Matters
  • Understanding Online Teaching & Learning
  • Blackboard Basics
  • Video Conferencing & Video Content

Faculty can go through the modules in order, or focus on the areas they are most interested in incorporating into their teaching.

Support for Students

Help is available for our students too! Should your students need help with Blackboard, please direct them to the Blackboard for Students support page page on the ITwiki. If students have questions, they can create a Help Desk ticket at wpunj.edu/helpdesk.
