Teaching Guides

The Faculty Teaching Handbook contains information on teaching-related policies and procedures at Rice, as well as walkthroughs to help new faculty access their rosters, set up their course sites, navigate the add/drop period, enter grades, etc.

The Adaptive Teaching Guide is intended to introduce a variety of strategies and techniques to help guide faculty members and instructors as they prepare for, and teach their classes in-person, online, and in dual-learning modalities. The guide features answers and suggestions to common pedagogical questions and challenges that faculty members may encounter. Instructors may also enroll in the CTE's Self-Paced Adaptive Course Design Institute through Canvas.

The Guide to Teaching Continuity is intended to assist Rice instructors in considering how to adjust their course plans during short and long-term disruption to the residential courses. Teaching during times of disruption may involve using technological tools not previously integrated into the course and thinking creatively about how to develop students’ knowledge and skills to complete course assignments. This resource provides guidance on what to consider when developing a plan for teaching your course remotely and high- and low-tech tips to manage your course and support your students.
