Join us online for the annual Faculty Technology Institute to reflect, share experiences, and learn from one another as we wrap up an unprecedented semester of online teaching, get ready to kick off our summer session online, and wonder what the fall semester might look like.
In our pivot to online teaching this spring did you discover a cool app or teaching trick? Is there an article, blog, or podcast you’ve found useful as you think about online teaching? We’re collecting your suggestions, tips, and tricks to share with participants after the FTI!
Do you want to continue or start a conversation with your colleagues on a particular topic? Suggest a lunch topic for a BoF style gathering at lunch in one of our Zoom Breakoutrooms.
Since we are meeting virtually, please contact edtech@lclark.edu or send us a Google Chat if you have questions or technical difficulties accessing the Zoom session.
Discussion forums are a popular staple of asynchronous digital learning and—if the sustained popularity of Reddit is any indication—they are still popular today. We'll take a closer look at the discussion forum feature in Moodle, examining the different types of discussion forums as well as options for assessment.
