Can my classes meet in the Center without me?

Does CLEAR provide support services to faculty?

CLEAR provides some services to faculty to support classes. Current course texts and ancillaries are on reserve at the circulation desk.

Does CLEAR provide support integrating technology into courses?

CLEAR's Technology Curriculum Standardization Committee, chaired by the CLEAR director, has the responsibility of incorporating technology-enhanced methodologies into our language teaching. If you have a specific requirement, or wish to integrate a particular computer-assisted component into your teaching, contact the CLEAR director.

Can I borrow equipment or materials?

Currently, CLEAR allows faculty to borrow the media that accompany current course texts. Films from the CLEAR collection may be borrowed by faculty as long as they are not on reserve for class use. Faculty may not borrow software or texts which are on reserve for CLEAR use only.
