CTSI Programming
The Centre for Teaching Support & Innovation brings together educational developers, faculty members, teaching, learning and technology liaisons, and staff as we all work toward building accessible, engaging and enriching teaching and learning environments at the University of Toronto.
CTSI programming, cohort-based learning and events allows our community to come together in a variety of ways and on a number of platforms.
If you are interested in proposing a session for the CTSI programming, please contact ctsi.teaching@utoronto.ca.

Self-Paced Programs
Course Design Foundations (CDF)
The CDF program is a set of 7 self-paced online modules that will be most beneficial for instructors new to teaching and/or new to teaching at U of T. It will also serve as a great refresher for more experienced instructors. Through the lenses of inclusive pedagogy and Universal Design for Learning, participants learn the elements of integrated course design.
Active Learning Classroom (ALC) Hub
The ALC Hub is designed to provide pedagogical guidance and support resources for instructors teaching in Active Learning Classrooms (ALCs) at U of T. Instructors and Teaching Assistants can leverage the resources and activities in the Hub to help them navigate teaching in ALCs across all three campuses and maximize the affordances in these classrooms to enhance student learning in line with their pedagogical goals.
Build a Welcoming Home Page in Quercus
Your Course Home Page sets the tone for your course and often is the source of a student’s first impression of your course. This program provides you with the tools you need to build an inviting and welcoming learning environment, starting with the Course Home Page. We anticipate this program will take up to two hours to complete.
