Murray State Teaching Postcards
The Murray State Teaching Postcards is a new forum for instructors to obtain information on successful teaching tips and methodologies. This site has been implemented as a trading post to promote teaching excellence. Faculty will be able to acquire ideas from campus colleagues and make postcards to disseminate their own approaches to effective teaching. The postcards are designed to give the reader a brief overview of a teaching method and author contact information. The overall goal of this site is to put best practices in teaching in a public forum to benefit the entire Murray State community.
If you are interested in submitting a postcard, please contact Ricky Cox at CTLT (809-3993, ricky.cox@murraystate.edu ). The process is quite simple and help is available for postcard construction.
The postcards are only available in PDF format. To download the latest version of Adobe Acrobat Reader, please go to the Adobe Reader Download Page.
