Description
Instructors seeking to design accessible and effective assignments for both in-person and online teaching contexts are invited to attend a Drake Institute webinar from 1 to 2:30 p.m., Friday, July 31. Faciliated by Drake Institute Instructional Consultant Shadia Siliman and Graduate Consultant Anne Van, this webinar will emphasize creative and flexible designs that provide students of diverse backgrounds and experiences the opportunity to meaningfully engage with course content. This webinar also provides a space for participants with varying levels of teaching experience to collaborate and learn from one another. Participants will use backwards design to develop assignments that guide student learning in alignment with course goals and learning outcomes. Successful participants will be able to: ** Define accessible design across in-person and online teaching contexts ** Articulate the process of backwards design in determining assignments ** Analyze the context of one’s course and student needs in regards to accessibility ** Develop accessible strategies which are appropriate and effective across learning ** Participants are asked to bring draft or finalized goals and/or learning outcomes for their course to the webinar/workshop.
