Quick Reference Guides
The Learning and Teaching Hub has created a variety of Quick-Reference Guides (QRGs) for common teaching tasks and challenges. Think of the QRGs as condensed highlights on educational topics, meant to offer just-in-time learning to quickly implement pedagogical strategies and provide additional resources for future in-depth learning.
All guides cover basic information about the topic, and are divided into three sections:
- Overview and Introduction: This section answers basic WHAT questions about the topic as well as WHO might use and/or benefit from it.
- Implementation and Timing: This section provides information on WHEN, WHERE, and HOW the strategy might be implemented.
- Rationale and Research: This section explains WHY the strategy is beneficial and provides research and resources for future learning.
- Additional Resources and References: This section includes links and citations for additional resources.
You can browse the guides by name (below) or sort them by tag/topic using the filter tool. Additional guidance on using the QRGs can be found in the Getting Started Quick Reference Guide.
