About Instruction

Instruction is devoted to offering UH instructors the latest in educational technology and instructional design thinking and showcases much of the fine work of the UH faculty in these areas. We have also put together quick tutorials to help you get started with the supported tools we have on campus.

We welcome you to read, share your thoughts, share with your colleagues, and most importantly share what you learn with your students. Enjoy!

We encourage you to sign up for a digest of the site (see above).
