WE'RE HERE TO HELP
The Teaching and Learning Commons (TLC) provides teaching support and resources for faculty, graduate students, and postdoctoral fellows. TLC staff collaborate with campus partners to assist instructors in enhancing their teaching tools, whether on campus or online, to deepen student learning.
ACCOMMODATING QUARANTINED STUDENTS
Accommodating students who are in quarantine is challenging and will be unique to your course and students. “Reasonable accommodations” should be made for students who are in quarantine but those actions will vary by course, activity, and learning outcome. These accommodations should give students the information and assignments necessary to achieve the course goals.
The Teaching and Learning Commons has compiled a few things to take into consideration
when evaluating accommodation options. Visit our quarantine page for some ideas
on meeting these challenges.
