This email is an invitation to join Jim Julius (Faculty Director of Online Education), Karen Turpin (Online Instructional Technologist), and me (Sean Davis – Joyful Teacher in Residence) for a morning beverage and an open-ended discussion on all things Canvas. Come with questions, concerns, ideas, and anything else relating to Canvas.
We are here to help with tools, tricks, resources, walk-throughs, and more to help you get Canvas to be what you need it to be and continue to provide the best possible educational service to our students.
What: Refreshments and Canvas Support When: Monday, February 10 from 9:45am to 10:45am Where: The Pedagogical Lounge in the C3 Teaching and Learning Center
I am excited to introduce new programming from our C3 Teaching and Learning Center. Conversations Connecting Colleagues is an effort to get us discussing important issues related to our profession. Once a month, I will release an article related to teaching and learning. Over the course of the month, you can engage with our faculty community by annotating the article and responding to others’ annotations. We will use a program called Hypothesis. Hypothesis is a tool that allows us to have a shared and social reading experience. You can jump in and out of the conversation anytime over the month. Once the social reading period is over, we will host a debrief session (On the first Wednesday of the month from 9:45am to 10:45am) in the C3 Teaching and Learning Center and online via Zoom.
From here, you can start annotating by selecting
any text, clicking “annotate” and submitting your text. You can also
see what other folks in the group have noted and reply to their
submissions.
My hope is that Conversations
Connecting Colleagues will engage our community and start important
discussions on issues that matter to us.
