Join our Learning Systems team as we showcase Class.com, an add-in for Zoom and Canvas, that extends Zoom’s functionality for online instruction and adds interactive screen sharing and content interactions.
A demo will be given by Class.com and our Lecturer, Peter Graening, will share his experiences and planned use in the new Flexstack program. Bring your (virtual) lunch, sit back, and enjoy the conversation!
The Digital Learning Team and the Center for Teaching and Learning (CTL) collaborated to empower faculty and enhance student learning experiences: Canvas Campaigns, the Fall Teaching Kickoff, and the Summer 2024 Course Design Studio.
Canvas Campaigns: A Course Design & Delivery Odyssey
Held virtually on July 22nd and 25th, the Canvas Campaigns event was an epic journey into the world of course design and delivery using Canvas. Participants were guided through the process of creating templated Canvas courses, migrating content, and exploring strategies to enhance clarity and communication. The event also focused on asynchronous community-building techniques, setting up Canvas gradebooks, and developing accessible materials. This initiative, developed through the collaborative efforts of CTL, OIT, GTPE, and C21U, aimed to ease teaching burdens and support student learning.
The Summer 2024 Course Design Studio was another highlight of this collaborative effort. This event offered faculty a hands-on opportunity to delve into course design, which focused on creating engaging and effective learning experiences. Participants worked on developing course materials, integrating technology, and exploring innovative teaching strategies. The studio environment encouraged creativity and collaboration, providing faculty with the tools and support needed to enhance their teaching practices.
