Since 2020, we’ve collected data on student experiences at Baruch. This data provides the CTL with actionable information to help the largest number of faculty adjust their pedagogy as efficiently as possible. Learn more about the findings from this ongoing study.
Zoom Guide
This Zoom guide is designed for all the instructors who need a remote/virtual class meeting platform to support any of the learning modalities currently offered by Baruch.
