Description
Description: 

The College of Arts and Sciences Office of Distance Education will host a Teaching Forum to discuss best practices for organizing online course experiences in CarmenCanvas. As online courses have become more common, and learning management systems (LMS) more capable, course organization has transitioned away from a model that views the LMS as a repository of course documents to a model that views an LMS as a space for curating learning experiences.

Faculty from the College of Arts and Sciences and university staff experts will share their experiences designing their courses in Carmen and their best advice for shaping a learning experience for students that is engaging, transparent, and serves the instructor’s learning goals for students.
  

Anticipated Outcomes – By the end of the session, participants will be able to… 

  • Understand the difference between a model for course design within the LMS that functions as simply a repository of information and a curated course experience  

  • Identify specific and realistic changes that can be made in your course to improve transparency and student engagement 

  • Situate consistency as a guiding principle in your course design when examining it as a curated course experience  

  • Leverage tools and design principles to guide your students along the path of learning you envision for your course 

Panelists:

Sarah Holt (Office of Technology and Digital Innovation)
Missy Beers (Office of Academic Affairs - Senior Director of the Bookends Program)
Naomi Brenner (Department of Near Eastern and South Asian Languages and Cultures)
Steven Lopez (Department of Sociology)
Ozeas Costa (Department of Earth Science - Mansfield Campus)
