Academic Resource Hub
The FCTL Academic Community is also home to the Academic Resource Hub, a module comprised of educational documents that support faculty in their teaching and learning pursuits. Academic Resource Hub documents contain in-depth information about topics that are mentioned in less detail on the website, and provide additional academic resources for those who are interested in researching further. From faculty guides on AI prompting and active learning support to formative assessment strategies and contemporary instructional delivery information, the Resource Hub is here to assist faculty in finding reliable, extensive knowledge on the topics that matter most to their teaching practices.
To access the Academic Resource Hub, navigate to the FCTL Academic Community and click on the "Academic Resource Hub" module. From there, navigate to the topic that you would like to learn more about and download the corresponding Resource Hub document.
