Welcome to Advanced Academic Programs (AAP). As a faculty member at AAP, you are part of a diverse and experienced teaching community. The Instructional Resource Center is happy to provide you with support and resources as you prepare for a successful semester.
To access the IRC’s wealth of resources about teaching and learning, as you get access to Canvas you will automatically be enrolled in a new community – the AAP Teaching and Learning Community. This site provides detailed information about topics such as accessibility, student assessment, and teaching strategies for online and blended courses. Additionally, the community serves as a dynamic learning environment in which you can collaborate with your colleagues and engage in authentic learning activities. Whether you are new to teaching at AAP, a returning lecturer, or a subject matter expert developing a new online course, you will find support and guidance to enrich your teaching experience.
