=Teaching and Technology Community of Practice=

Welcome to the Teaching and Technology (T&T) Community of Practice (CoP) wiki. Created by the [|Centre for Teaching Innovation and Excellence] at [|Wilfrid Laurier University], this wiki is intended to capture and extend the conversations that take place every three to four weeks with those who teach, support, or who are interested in integrating technology into their instructional practice and overall course design. The wiki space will also be used to share resource/instructional materials.

The T&T CoP provides a forum for members of the Laurier community from across the disciplines and departments to come together to share experiences, best practices, and lessons learned associated with the use of technologies in teaching (from the simple to the complex, pen and paper to electronic). The agenda for each gathering is informal and driven by participant needs, interests and questions.

Before joining us, take a moment to browse the resource page and review the CoP guidelines.
