Training Opportunities Here's where you can find training opportunities from a variety sources in a variety of formats. Blackboard Course Management System All things Blackboard, our course management system, will be found here for the beginner through advanced user. Classroom Technology Learn about the technology available in the general purpose classrooms in Memorial, the Learning Center, and the residential colleges.

iClicker Student Response System Student response systems are used to poll students during class. When used effectively they can increase engagement by involving the students in the presentation, no matter the size of the class. Other IAC Activities The Center provides a number of lesser services, listed here. General Information Things that the IAC knows about, but are not part of our responsibilities. This section is here so that we can refer people to it when asked for information, or you can learn the information without having to ask us about it.

Internal IAC Procedures

These are processes used by the Instructional Advancement Center as part of our regular duties. They are here as documentation for IAC employees, but may also be useful to other people who want to accomplish some of the same tasks.

This site was created after hearing an Educause presentation about the http://hofstrateach.org/octopus/ project. I want to thank them for sharing their model so that other schools could benefit.
