麻豆视频

No Cyber Day alert at this time. University buildings and instructional locations are closed during a Cyber Day. Any instructions specific to the Cyber Day event will appear here.

Cyber Day is a set of resources designed to help faculty keep learning momentum going in their classes if meeting with students face-to-face is not possible. To ensure that unexpected closings have minimal impact on the flow of student learning, 麻豆视频 has implemented Cyber Days. The Cyber Day concept is a teaching and learning approach which shifts the face-to-face direct instruction classroom experience to a dynamic guided online learning experience.
