Academic Quality & Excellence : Learning Technologies Facilitators

Learning Technologies Facilitators assist faculty, instructors and students participating in online, blended and technology-mediated courses. They can help with:

• In-Classroom station – setup, connections, monitoring and disconnections
• Online classes (e.g., Zoom) – support for students, faculty and staff.
• Taking attendance
• Distribution of materials
• General classroom management – e.g., preventing disruptions, monitoring student behaviours
• Course exercises – e.g., setting up groups for group work
• Using UCNLearn tools – e.g., submitting assignments to dropbox, taking quizzes
• Support for invigilating tests or exams*
• Student Course Evaluations

*Note: invigilation support is available only when faculty coverage is not possible at the home (instructor) location of the course. To request invigilation support, download the form on this page and submit it to your Faculty Dean's office.

Learning Technologies Facilitators (LTFs) work with faculty members to ensure a positive student learning experience.

Comprehensive contact sheets for the LTF Team are posted in each room designated for videoconferencing, web conferencing and distance learning. Instructors, staff and students are encouraged to call for assistance if required during class sessions.
