Resources to Support Teaching

Embed Research Projects in your Course

Digital Projects and Making

  • The Foundry:  The Foundry is the makerspace for campus. Foundry staff can help you integrate making into your course. You can also encourage your students to use The Foundry on their own time.
  • PCL Media Lab: The Media Lab  provides hardware and software to create audio, video, 3D animation and still projects. Contact us to integrate media projects into your course. The Media Lab can also be booked as  a teaching space.
  • PCL Data Lab:  The Data Lab provides hardware and software for analysis and management of data and advanced research projects.  Contact us to integrate the data lab into your course. The Data Lab can be booked as a teaching space.
  • Request a PCL Learning Lab: PCL Learning Labs are technologically rich, flexible teaching spaces that seat 32 to 84 students. Faculty may request a Learning Lab for their course up to 2x per semester. Requests will be considered if the Learning Labs technology will be used to facilitate collaboration, not simply presentation; or for instructors needing space to help students work with the print collections in PCL. Librarians are available to help you integrate the technology into your course.
  • Integrate digital projects into your course: Contact librarians about integrating digital projects into your course. Ideas include making videos, podcasts and exhibits as alternatives to traditional research papers. See this Learning Technologies rubric to help in the selection of digital tools, this guide to Digital Projects Using Special Collections and this guide to Digital Humanities Tools and Resources.
