What is the Teaching and Technology Collaborative?
The Teaching and Technology Collaborative (TeachTech) supports the U-M community’s efforts to leverage technology for teaching, learning, and research. We provide opportunities and resources for the use of technology that is driven by purpose rather than tools. TeachTech members connect you to a wide variety of services and experts across all campus units through consultations, workshops, collaborations, and other activities. We host the annual Enriching Scholarship conference, first offered in 1998, to bring together U-M faculty, staff, and students to share best practices and explore new opportunities that enhance teaching, learning, and research.
Recordings of most sessions are available at our Teachtech MiVideo Mediaspace. Additionally, anyone with a U-M uniqname can still self-enroll in last year’s conference website at Canvas to review session titles, descriptions, and to access session materials.
