The Teaching page in MyUW offers faculty and instructors vital information and resources that support the quarterly workflow of preparing and leading a course. MyUW closely integrates with other teaching and learning tools and the registrar's systems to provide a rich source of real-time data.
Using the Teaching Page
Access the Teaching page in MyUW from the link in the left navigation, pictured below.
Each course you teach is represented by a course details card, with links to the class, student lists, course materials and grading information and submissions.
To access student contact info
To download a student roster, which includes email addresses, select Download (CSV) next to the Enrollment data.
To generate a course mailing list
Visit the Create mailing lists feature in the Course Materials section. Please note that the "Create mailing lists" function is not instantaneous - it may take several hours for the list to become available for use.
Additional Features
- Also visible is grading information (you'll always know the deadline for submitting grades, because it always appears on the Teaching page). Order textbooks, access Canvas and find more campus and online resources for teaching.
- Since instructors sometimes need to review previous work, you can navigate back through six years of previous teaching via the All terms tab at the top of the Teaching page.
- Teaching resources - such as course reserves, web tools, help guides and more - are easy to find on the right side of the Teaching page.
- The Instructor Course Dashboard - accessible via the View course stats link on the course details card - displays aggregated data from the courses instructors are currently teaching, and data from previous offerings of the same course. Course dashboards help instructors with course planning, assessing their teaching practices, and improving the classroom experience. For example, instructors can view the distribution of majors and the courses that students are taking concurrently helping them make connections between student interests and the course's subject matter.
