Come to the ATS Open House!

At the ATS Open House, held Thursday September 25 and Friday. October 3 from 11:00 A.M. to 2:00 P.M. in the Regenstein Library TechBar, our team members will introduce you to the resources, services, and programming we offer. You’re invited to tour our Regenstein studios, talk to our instructional designers about your courses, compare notes with your fellow instructors, and more!

Join Aim for Accessible!

We invite you to join colleagues from across the University in a challenge to fix accessibility issues in your Canvas courses. The Pope Tech tool in Canvas makes it easy for you to chart a course toward creating a more inclusive learning environment. At the end of each quarter, we’ll list participants who complete the challenge on our Aim for Accessible Wall of Fame. As a bonus, we’ll offer rewards (AKA “swag”) to participants who complete the challenge for a course!

Cultivate AI-Discerning Learners in the Classroom

As generative AI becomes a bigger part of our daily lives, it’s important to teach students when and how to use it. ATS’ ongoing blog post series on AI-discerning learners offers tips and strategies you can share with your students to help them use AI responsibly.

Maximize Your Canvas Course Site Accessibility

Think accessibility is an impossible goal to achieve? Think again! We’ve put together a step-by-step guide to help you maximize the accessibility of your Canvas course site, leveraging tools supported by the University.
