Instructor Testimonials
“ATS at the Virtual Welcome Bar has kept my courses and teaching, and most importantly student learning, at a level of very high quality. Per student comments from the pandemic-shortened spring semester (as well as from other semesters that I have taught), online students overwhelmingly view the transitioned courses as exemplary, worthwhile, stimulating, engaging and effective. It is clear to me that this would not have been possible without ATS. Thank you!!!!”
“This service has been invaluable to my teaching at the University of Delaware. As a long-term classroom-based teacher, the transition to online learning has been less “painful” than I envisioned. This is due to the quality of the staff and their high level of knowledge regarding the use of educational technology in the students’ learning environment. The Virtual Welcome Bar has been a tremendous help to me. The staff have been extremely responsive, I am able to schedule a help session whenever I have a question or need to troubleshoot an issue. Thank you.
