 Teaching and Learning

The Family Education Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) is a federal law that protects the privacy of student records. Prior to age 18, parents have rights pertaining to their child’s educational records. Once 18, individuals have rights to their records. Students have the right to review their records, to request a correction to records, and to consent to the disclosure of their records. Schools can only share educational records with written permission (with some exceptions).

WSU's Teaching, Learning, and Technology (TLT) team is ready to assist faculty, staff, and students!

The T(4) email series is created and published by WSU's TLT. This is the archive of past emails.

The TLT Bookshelf is a series presented by WSU's TLT team to share summaries and recommendations from the top teaching and learning books.

TLT offers several short courses for faculty development.

H5P creates HTML5 interactive modules that can be included directly into a Brightspace course. H5P content engages the student in low-stakes activities that can be used to assess mastery with grades imported directly into the Brightspace gradebook.

The OCDC tool can be used as a road map for designing new courses, a guide for revising existing courses, or as a rubric for a formal course review. It was created specifically for WSU with guidance from faculty and TLT staff and is available at no cost to WSU faculty.
