The CTL in collaboration with RIT, would like to provide additional resources that assist in effective teaching and learning not only in the classroom but also in a remote or hybrid format.

  • Small Teaching Online: Applying Learning Science in Online Classes by Flower Darby (with James M. Lang) is a practical guide that translates learning science into concrete strategies for improving online teaching. Building on Lang’s Small Teaching framework, Darby adapts its principles for digital and hybrid environments, showing that meaningful learning can happen through small, deliberate changes rather than massive overhauls.
  • Online Teaching at Its Best: Merging Instructional Design with Teaching and Learning Research by Linda B. Nilson and Ludwika A. Goodson is a comprehensive guide for creating effective, engaging, and research-based online learning experiences. It bridges the gap between instructional design principles and pedagogical best practices, offering educators both the theory and practical tools needed to design high-quality online and hybrid courses.
