In just the past two weeks, most (if not all) institutions associated with ASOR have moved to online teaching. Many of our members have been directed to switch to online instruction, sometimes with very little notice. The ASOR family is a close and strong one, so we are coming together in an effort to assemble an online collection of resources and teaching materials to support our members and the student whom they teach.
This portal of online resources will grow organically with submissions from our members and friends.聽During this initial phase, we are asking our members to share online resources, websites, teaching aids, guidelines, or advice that they feel could be useful. We recognize that many have been forced into a position of teaching online, and ASOR wants to provide a portal where we can share ideas and help each other. Please email Marta Ostovich at programs@asor.org with any resources you would like to share with your colleagues. We also welcome your suggestions and offers to volunteer in helping us set up these resources.
Stay tuned for more to come!
