Teaching and learning online
This page is a collection of resources for teaching staff, that needs to teach online. The material is a compilation of the basic tools available already at LiU. The compilation contains online guides and is supposed to be used for different kinds of teaching activities. The recommendation is to begin with digitization of the content matter and using our LMS Lisam for distribution.The second alternative is to use live video tools for online activities. In the latter case, there might be limitations in server capacity. Please chose Teams if you can, since the capacity on Zoom is limited (2013-03-13).
You can always contact Didacticum to discuss educational development using ed tech or sign up for a course held by our IT-department. They provide tool-oriented courses and are also available through drop-in-sessions.
We will soon also provide more information on digital examination as a part of this resource.
IT-tools and software for teaching online
- Microsoft Office 365 (Windows/iOS), for instance PowerPoint, Word and Teams
- Zoom (Use your liu-id to log in)
- Course room in our LMS LISAM including video channel.
Try to use a headset (even a smartphone headset is good enough) but you can also use the built-in microphone in your laptop.
