Fall 2020 Teaching Resources for Faculty
The UAB Center for Teaching and Learning is committed to supporting UAB faculty as we all navigate the teaching challenges presented by the COVID-19 pandemic. On this page, we will maintain a list of resources to assist in this effort.
Be sure to check out our monthly flyer. Most of these workshops, designed specifically for UAB faculty, address hybrid learning/teaching methods that faculty will find useful for the upcoming Fall 2020 semester. Check back often, as this page will be updated on a regular basis.
