Concourse helps faculty use the Web to enhance their classes. You can use Concourse tools to post student grades, share a list of Web links, publish syllabi or other material, assign a reading check, establish an online discussion, administer a quiz, or conduct a survey. For more information, visit Concourse (formerly WebCT) online at http://oit.nd.edu/concourse/index.shtml/.
At Notre Dame, faculty and administrators may use email LISTSERV lists to communicate with students. LISTSERV lists are an automated email distribution system wherein anyone subscribed to a list receives copies of email sent to that list. It's similar to an email list that you create in your own email address book, but instead of being on your computer, it's handled by a LISTSERV server. To request that a LISTSERV list be set up, use your browser to go to http://listserv.nd.edu.
The Kaneb Center's mission is to enhance student learning by serving faculty and teaching assistants in their teaching roles and by collaborating with departments, colleges, other programs, and the administration to shape policies, structures, and cultures that support teaching and learning. Among the resources they offer is information and instruction about the effective utilization of technology in your curriculum. To learn more about this valuable resource, go to http://kaneb.nd.edu/. The Kaneb Center would be happy to visit with your department to discuss teaching and learning issues and identify ways in which the Kaneb Center can assist you.
