Dear Faculty Colleagues,
FITS provides assistance for faculty members who wish to explore and develop uses of instructional technologies in their teaching, assignments and assessments through one-on-one consulting, workshops, and discussion sessions.
Beginning next Wednesday August 18, our office resumes a limited schedule of hours for virtual no-appointment necessary drop-in support (via Zoom, posted on our Calendar of Events).
Tuesdays 10am-Noon
Wednesdays 2-4pm
Our staff members are also available to meet with you either in-person or virtually by appointment. Please drop a note to fits@depauw.edu to arrange a consultation, or contact any of us individually:
FITS has student ITAP Associates available to help provide in-class, out-of-class or virtual workshops for your students in project-specific technologies like video editing, collaborative documents, 3D modeling, pivot tables and more. Drop us a note with your questions regarding student-led sessions.
Our FITS website offers resources related to teaching/learning (including video archives of last year’s presentations related to mixed-mode instruction), and our Calendar of Events. Other resources we hope you will engage with, include:
Keep Teaching At DePauw: A Moodle site to help DePauw faculty members remotely sustain our community of practice, by sharing and discussing our successes, strategies and challenges.
Information Services Helpdesk: Offering technical support for DePauw students, faculty, and staff members. Email helpdesk@depauw.edu or phone x4294 for assistance with technical issues such as account access, classroom tech issues, etc....
DePauw Libraries: Offering electronic reserves, research databases and more.
You can find out more about other campus resources for instructional technologies through the following:
DePauw’s traditional classrooms will be equipped this year, with tripod-mounted USB webcams and USB conference speaker/microphones. FITS has created a brief video introducing these devices, that you may view here.
We look forward to helping guide you through a successful semester!
Your FITS Team,
Veronica, Jin & Beth
