About the Instructional Resource Center
 
 
  Welcome to the Instructional Resource Center (IRC) home page. Our mission is to assist faculty in their use of technology to advance effective teaching and learning.
 
  Our center houses a wide selection of computer hardware and software that is available for faculty use.
 
  Another critical function of the IRC is to provide system-wide training and support for instructors using HuskyCT, the e-learning system used at UConn.
 
  We also are in charge of scheduling the use of Room 214, a classroom in the Center for Undergraduate Education that is equipped with 20 computers and a teaching station.
 
 
Announcements
   
Requesting HuskyCT sites for Summer and Fall classes
    Instructors of record submit site requests using PeopleSoft (see instructions)
     
    To re-use content from a prior semester
    Fill out the “Restore HuskyCT Sections” request form AFTER you have submitted your PeopleSoft request for the new site. A link to this restore form can be found on the site request page in PeopleSoft. It can also be accessed directly at http://irc.uconn.edu/restore_vista.php .
     
    Combining HuskyCT sites
    If you are teaching more than one section of a class, even if they are cross-listed, and want just one HuskyCT site for all the students to access, you need to request HuskyCT sites for each section using PeopleSoft and then email huskyct@uconn.edu to request that the sections be combined.
     
Real- time interactive web-based training and support available
   

The IRC is using Elluminate Live! Academic Edition 8.0, a "real-time eLearning and web collaboration environment", for remote training and support. Please call 486-2721 or 486-5052 to schedule an online help session.

Basic instructions for using this web-based application can be found here.
