Welcome from the TIC Development officer:Dear Colleague,
As we enter the new academic year TIC reaches the end of its three year funding
cycle and becomes ‘business as usual’ in TCD. Over its funding cycle TIC
developed two key resources that are available to staff both within TCD and
externally. These resources are:
An online self-evaluation application to assist in the design and review of
teaching and assessment practices, and
A resource website offering multimedia resources to help staff create a
more inclusive learning environment.

These interconnected online platforms can guide and support you as you seek to
use best practice teaching and
assessment practices to fully engage
all your students. They have been
designed to be user friendly, engaging
and intuitive, and can be used
together or separately to provide you
with all information needed to
confidently apply principles of
universal design and inclusion to your teaching and assessment.
