1.3 HOW TO NAVIGATE THIS SITE

This Canvas course serves as an introduction to our university and new faculty community. Here you will find valuable resources such as campus parking, technology, key contacts, and critical information about teaching.

Take Your Time To Read

This site is not meant for you to read all in one sitting. Doing so might create a negative experience of information overload, and we certainly don't want that. Take your time to go through the content in the Modules and become familiar with CSUN resources and the information we curated about teaching and scholarship. Think about this site as your guide on the side during your first year at CSUN. We hope that you will keep coming back here to revisit some information when you need it and also to keep connected to your peers and the Faculty Development team.

Course Module Organization

The content of this site is organized in a linear fashion using Canvas Modules. After you complete Module 1, you will be able to skip around the other Modules and read them in whatever order you wish. Here is the order of the current Modules:

Wait, there is more...

Don't be surprised if you see more Modules or new pages showing up in the future! COVID-19 has made us all adapt to a more flexible reality in higher education and CSUN is no exception. We will do our best to keep the information here updated as we connect with other offices and departments on campus. Rest assured that, whenever we have something new planned out for you, you will receive an Announcement or email from us.
