• Details about iLearn and the various tools useful for Faculty and Student interaction.

What is iLearn?

iLearn, which stands for Innovative Learning Environment and Research Network, is a web-based “collaborative learning environment” built to support formal and informal collaboration, ranging from fully online and face-to-face courses to faculty committee work and student clubs.  The system provides a range of communication and information management tools designed to facilitate interactions with content, between instructor and students, and peer to peer.

iLearn is a toolbox for teaching, learning, and collaboration. You can pick and choose any combination of tools in it that fits your needs. You don’t have to know all of them to get started. See the next section for a matrix of iLearn tools and their functions.
