"How to" Technical Guides (UofT's Academic Toolbox)

Guides listed in this section are tools that are part of UofT's Academic Toolbox and are fully supported. These guides are organized by tool. These guides are directed towards instructors and teaching teams. The images used on these guides reflect permissions of these roles and may be different than what students see.

"How to" Technical Guides (Non-Academic Toolbox Tools)

Guides listed in this section are tools that are NOT part of UofT's Academic Toolbox. These guides reflect tools that are commonly used in teaching and/or by the ETO but are not technically supported (see how to safely implement non-vetted tools in your course). These guides are organized by tool. These guides are directed towards instructors and teaching teams. The images used on these guides reflect permissions of these roles and may be different than what students see.

Teaching with Technology Resources

These resources provide in-depth planning resources including templates and "before you begin" planning advice (including thoughts on priorities to consider and how to design and implement your education technology solutions within your course).

"How to" Technical Guides (Students)

These guides are directed towards students. The ETO is not a student-facing helpdesk, but we share here guides that we've created for use within courses. If you are a student experiencing a technical issue, please contact the Information Commons at Robarts Library. The images used on these guides reflect permissions of the student role and may be different than what instructors and teaching teams see.
