The Teach Where You Are website was created by members of the Task Force on Remote Learning as part of an overall effort to provide support for Colgate faculty as they work to transition their in-person teaching to a remote mode, either sometime this summer or once the fall 2020 semester begins. The strategies, tips, tools, and resources featured on this website were informed by conversations with, and surveys of, faculty, staff, and students. This website is a work in progress, and we welcome feedback and questions from the university community. Please contact the Task Force with your ideas and questions (remotelearningtaskforce@colgate.edu).
