Center for Innovative Learning

Resources for Faculty

All our expertise gained in the past two years is documented and accessible through our website and via Blackboard. Benefit from the e-learning platform we have set up, which comprises workshops, presentations, meetings, tutorials, projects and many other useful materials. Similarly, our equipment and facilities are expanding progressively. Currently, we are building four studios designated for enhancing the online teaching experience. CIL works closely with various departments at LAU to continuously increase its resources and services network.

Faculty Brown Bag Sessions

The CIL is hosting a series of virtual brown bag sessions. Each session, while loosely structured around a theme, is really meant to be a platform where you can share your online teaching successful moments, commiserate over perceived failures, or just tune in to listen while you work through a stack of grading.  Now if, for any reason, you missed a session, do not worry, you can still watch it on the corresponding link listed below:

Session 1: Setting up a Course

Session 2: Building an Online Community/Getting to Know Your Students
