About Us

We are a team of students, faculty, alumni and staff at the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education led by Dr. Clare Brett, who are dedicated to help and support faculty and students  at and outside OISE, as they transition to online teaching and learning. This team was developed as a response to the COVID-19 necessity for moving all courses at OISE online.

The OISE Online website, features a learning path for both teachers and students with many resources about the most familiar platforms used at OISE: Quercus, Zoom and PeppeR. The site is also designed to be a one-stop-shop for those teachers who have experience teaching online but need some guidance or want to orient themselves with the online mode of delivery. It also has some great resources and support for students new to online learning. The website will continue to evolve and the team will keep working together, taking cues from web analytics and the integration of real-time questions from teachers and students to make this project a growing success.
