Syllabus
Lemle's Last Minute Syllabus Toolkit
Effective syllabus and course design take time and planning. This toolkit is not meant for course design, but as a quick guide to help you double-check your syllabus, especially if you are a new faculty member at Oberlin College. Each section has a few quick tips drawn from the scholarship on teaching. It is updated every semester.

Educational Technology
GTC works with the Oberlin Center for Technologically Enhanced Teaching (OCTET) to help faculty think about what their course objectives are and how technology could help them achieve their objectives. The OCTET team works with faculty in specific areas to help implement and maintain the technological resources they use to teach and engage students.
External Links
The Great Lakes Colleges Association (GLCA) Consortium for Teaching and Learning provides online access for short research annotations compiled by Teagle Pedagogy fellows to help time-pressed faculty find the one or two essential articles in the field. Essays for Action offer longer, researched articles about teaching and learning written by GLCA affiliated faculty.
