Online and Blended Learning

TTS provides expertise in the design, development, production, launch, and on-going support of online courses and programs at Tufts.

The Online and Blended Learning Team in Educational Technology Services (ETS) supports Faculty, Program Directors, and Deans who are planning or offering an online or blended course or program.

Tufts Community of Online Learning and Teaching (COLT) is a learning community for faculty and instructors to support one another in providing engaging, effective online learning for students. We meet monthly (online!) to share experiences, brainstorm solutions, and learn from subject matter experts both in our midst and from colleagues farther afield. COLT is coordinated by Tufts Educational Technology Services with colleagues from the online learning and consulting teams. We’d love to have you join us!
