Library Instruction
For Instructors Trying New Assignments
Request a one-time librarian-led session covering topics such as digital storytelling, project planning, ethically sourcing content, production basics, design principles, and editing. Due to limited staffing, we are only able to offer this session one time.
For All Instructors
Reserve the Creative Technologies Instruction Room and bring your students to the RDDC for an instructor-led class session or project work time.
Student Resources
Learning resources can be shared with students through Canvas modules or our Project Guides. These include planning worksheets, concept videos, content-finding tips, suggested tools, software tutorials, and more.
Canvas Modules
Ready-to-use modules available in Canvas Commons. Customize them for your assignment or add Amanda as a Resource Assistant for help.
Tip: If the links below don’t open the module in Canvas Commons, search the module name or “Amanda McCollom”.
