Good writing, interpersonal communication skills and training/teaching skills are desirable.
Instructional technology GTFs will work independently and as a team to assist faculty with instructional course design, primarily but not limited to work in the Learning Management System (currently Blackboard).
The UO is currently reviewing Learning Management Systems as part of a formal procurement process. Should the UO decide to move to a new LMS, the instructional technology GTFs will play a key role in migrating the UO’s course web sites from Blackboard to a new system. Training will be provided.
GTFs will provide hands-on support to faculty in their respective schools, assisting faculty and GTFs in integrating technology, designing courses or migrating existing ones. GTFs will also design and deliver instructional technology workshops for faculty and GTFs.
This is a fabulous opportunity to gain real world experience in teaching, technology service delivery and in your chosen discipline.
