Technologies for instruction
You can access many key IU computing systems via One.IU.edu, which is an app-based portal for a variety of functions. Included in One.IU are apps for your personal employee information, your “Faculty Center” with information on the course you are teaching, and access to IU email via Outlook Exchange.
You should be regularly checking your IU email for messages from Media School administration, IU administration, and students. You can access your email via IU Exchange through One.IU, or via this link. You can also set your IU email to forward to a new address within Exchange settings.
If you need to teach live lectures via distance learning, either due to the nature of your course or a temporary pause of in-person activities due to health issues or if you are inviting a guest speaker to your class who is not able to attend in person, you should use the IU Zoom portal. You must have a valid IU login to access IU Zoom.
For more assistance with exploring learning technologies that fit your instructional goals, contact an instructional consultant at the Center for Innovative Teaching and Learning (CITL). They can help you identify technologies that fit with your learning outcomes, course contexts, and technological experience. For technical help with specific technologies, try the IU Knowledge Base.
Familiarize yourself with any technology or software specific to your course prior to the start of your course. Students value their class or lab time and rely on your guidance to help them learn during that scheduled time.
