Spring 2018 Teaching & Learning Newsletter

As another successful academic year is winding down, we would like to share some great stories about teaching and learning activities at College of the North Atlantic.

In April, we hosted our first Instructional Skills Workshop (ISW) for faculty. Feedback from the session was very positive, and we look forward to the next workshop in June. The picture (left) is our first group of aspiring participants. For more information on ISW, please reach out to us at teachlearn@cna.nl.ca.

In July, we will be upgrading our current Desire2Learn (D2L) system to the "Daylight" version. When you return in September, you will see a cleaner, more user-friendly interface with the same great functionality. We will be offering webinar sessions early in the fall term that will give you an overview of the main changes. And, as always, you can reach out to our D2L Faculty Trainer, Lisa Skinner (dltraining@cna.nl.ca) or the DL Service Helpdesk (http://dls.cna.nl.ca) for assistance.

Sincerely,
Theresa Pittman
AVP Teaching & Learning
