Inclusive Teaching Includes You Too: Teacher Value in a Student-Centered World

Thursday, January 20, 2022 - 1:00pm to 2:30pm
Online in Zoom

In our quest to be student-centered, we can end up making choices that overwhelm us with their unsustainability. That is, it's easier to be a "sage on the stage" than it is to meet students where they are. In this session, we'll discuss how to stay student-centered while avoiding burnout.

AsULearn Gradebook: Taking the Pain-Free Plunge

Friday, January 7, 2022 - 2:00pm to 3:00pm
Online in Zoom

If you've never taken the AsULearn gradebook plunge, you're not alone. Your spreadsheets have worked just fine for years, right? But wouldn't it be nice to finally eliminate all those emails from students wondering about their grades? Trust us, this is a teaching move students really dig (read: gets your teaching evals up) AND it saves you time - so it's great bang for your buck. And yes, the gradebook CAN handle your unusual grading scheme - the possibilities are basically limitless.

Combining Courses in AsULearn-Metacourses

Friday, January 7, 2022 - 1:00pm to 2:00pm
Online in Zoom

Teaching multiple sections of the same course? Don't want to have to post course materials multiple times in multiple AsULearn course sites? Done this before, but heard about our new 'Metagroup Sync' tool and want to use it? Attend this webinar and learn to use the "course meta link" to combine enrollments from multiple sections or courses into ONE AsULearn course site, while still being about to sort your grade book by section, and send announcements to separate sections if needed, and use group overrides to control release times of the same activities based on section (group).

Hypothesis: Easy Digital Group Annotating for Teachers of Writing

Thursday, January 6, 2022 - 1:00pm to 2:00pm
Online in Zoom

Hypothes.is is a super-easy tool baked into AsULearn and its gradebook that allows for group annotation - notetaking and conversation - right on top of online documents such as websites or uploaded PDFs. No more having to dig for quotes while you and your students are discussing them asynchronously! In this workshop, a guest specialist from Hypothesis (and former writing instructor) will demo how you can use Hypothes.is specifically with writing (or writing-forward) courses to make the online conversations flow more easily.
