VESTAL, N.Y. — Binghamton University, like universities all across New York and the nation, on March 19 shifted to online-only instruction, as part of its “response to the evolving coronavirus situation.”
The “rapid pace” of the transition presents “some challenges,” the school said, but Binghamton University’s Center for Learning and Teaching (CLT) has been providing guidance to faculty and staff as they prepare for the switch, per an online news release.
Many resources can be found on its academic continuity webpage, including training and contact information for help. The website is: https://www.binghamton.edu/clt/ids/resources/academic-continuity/index.html
