Overview
The Office of the Provost and Pitt IT have partnered to provide the Pitt community with better tools for tutoring and academic support by contracting with TutorOcean to present a new platform for students, advisors, mentors, and instructors.
Pitt TutorOcean provides an online learning space suitable for all types of subjects: math, writing, languages, computer programming, chemistry, and more.
Students can comfortably interact virtually with tutors, peers, advisors, and instructors in a uniquely equipped virtual learning space. A collaborative whiteboard allows both parties to work together on materials in real-time. Either party can share files before, during, and after the live session. All marked-up materials and whiteboards can be downloaded for reference.
Pitt TutorOcean should be experienced on a desktop or laptop computer using a Chrome or Firefox browser. Tablets and mobile devices are not currently supported.
Who can host a Pitt TutorOcean classroom?
- Tutors working in Pitt programs.
- Instructors interested in using Pitt TutorOcean for office hours and study sessions.
- Program administrators, mentors, or staff needing an online classroom to help students with academic content.
