Instruction Toolkit: Home

The links below are for frequently used teaching resources.

This tool kit is intended for the use of MIT Libraries staff who are teaching a class, workshop, or seminar for the Libraries. It is maintained by the Instruction Subgroup within Instruction and Reference Services.

The toolkit contains teaching material such as scripts, outlines, handouts, and presentation slides that instructors have used to great success in their classes. We encourage everyone to share their best teaching material here and for others to use or adapt it for other classes.

If you are teaching an in-person class this spring, make sure to follow Libraries Teaching Guidelines and the Visitor Access Policy:

• Using the Tim Tickets App is optional at this time. Scan attendees using the Tim Ticket App for in-person workshops not affiliated with academic classes (see Libraries Teaching Guidelines).
• If you plan to include attendees who are not in covid pass, follow the procedure outlined in the Libraries Visitor Access Policy to request access.
• Masks are optional.
• Food and drink can be served at events.
