Team Activities

The Teaching & Learning (T&L) Response Team has been working at a number of ways to make teaching in the Libraries easier:

A pool of library staff have made themselves available as moderators fro Zoom sessions, so that instructors can focus on teaching, not monitoring chat or troubleshooting technical issues. Reach out to the pool at zoom-lib at mit dot edu for support while teaching or other Zoom advice.
The team is connected and learning from and with the IvyPlus instruction group.

They are working on a project to support teaching librarians in moving their f2f teaching into online environments.
Several members are part of the Canvas Response Team, working to integrate the Libraries into Canvas, the new learning management system supported at MIT.
