CATL will be trying something a bit different this semester by bringing our services directly to instructors. One of our instructional designers, instructional technologists, or our Canvas administrator will be holding office hours for 2 hours per week in each of the four colleges. We’ll post our location in Teach Tuesday each week and also keep this blog page up-to-date. Please stop by and see us – no appointment necessary!
Have you heard the term “ChatGPT” and wondered what everyone was talking about?

The Office of Professional and Instructional Development (OPID) is sponsoring a systemwide book club for UW instructors this spring!

Tara DaPra, one of CATL’s Instructional Development Consultants, will lead a “Co-Writing Community” this spring. Gathering as a co-writing community reserves space in your schedule for the projects you wish to work on but might otherwise get pushed aside. The community will meet every Monday and Friday. Drop in anytime!
