It will open the document in another screen. To download, locate and select the 3 dots on the right side of the screen. You will then be given the option to download the document to your device.

At your discretion, you may choose to insert requirements for your class to use the Writing Center, Standalone Turnitin (using Turnitin.com) or the Integrated Turnitin version over the course of the term. Faculty instructions for use and recommended syllabus wording are located in the Faculty Hub under Academic Resources.

Alternative Instructional Equivalencies (AIEs)

AIEs are course instructional components that capture the various ways learning in accelerated, hybrid, and/or online courses occurs in extension of/beyond the face-to-face classroom time. The AIEs are an essential means of documenting learning that occurs across these varieties of delivery methods. While the documentation component (the AIE sheet) is reserved only for the facilitator and the institution (not shared with students), the implications of the AIEs are embedded in the learning experience of each AIE-supported class.

AIEs for a course are documented in the AIE Worksheet shown below:

Faculty have two options to document their AIEs for their course:

1. AIE Template - 15 Week Course Instructions and Worksheet - complete and attach to the syllabus

2. AIE Worksheet in Word format to copy and paste into their course syllabus

To download and use, click on the blue button below and select the 3 dots on the right side of the screen. You will then be given the option to download the document to your device.
