Did you try HuskyCT basics and still have questions? Did you try building your assessment in HuskyCT last week and still have questions? Do you plan to use LockDown Browser but have a few more questions? Need advice on Grade Center? EdTech will host a session for you to ask questions about HuskyCT features with which you continue to struggle. This will not be a training session, rather it will be an opportunity to ask a specific question related to HuskyCT features.

Developing Active-Learning Activities For Your Course
Tuesday, September 22nd, 2020
01:00 PM - 02:30 PM
Other Online
By now you have a set of module-scale objectives for your class and some content ready to present. You have heard that it is good to inject some active learning into the module to engage students and provide variety to your assessments of their learning. For many of us, the step of creating activities and engaging assessments for every objective in a class can seem like an overwhelming task. Let's take it one step at a time by targeting one objective you want to address with active learning and discuss how we can do this with your peers. This open session is intended as a forum for instructors (teaching in any modality) with some knowledge of working with objectives and assessments. We will talk with one another about building effective, active learning tools for engaging students and assessing their understanding of the material in a low-risk manner. We will keep the number of participants small so we can each have a chance to discuss a thorny problem we are grappling with and hear about how others are building their own activities. This workshop will be repeated so feel free to come back to continue sharing ideas and building your library of active learning tools.

Distance Learning Assessment Strategies 10:00am
Distance Learning Assessment Strategies
Wednesday, September 23rd, 2020
10:00 AM - 11:00 AM
Other Online
Dave Giblin is an APIR in the Mechanical Engineering Department at Avery Point, where he has connected engineering students across regional campuses with his distance-learning courses. Dr. Giblin joined UConn in 2013, and has taught 14 distance-learning courses over the past 5 years (including two this semester). He is a firm believer in problem-based learning for long-term retention in STEM education, and incorporates teamwork and active learning in his synchronous distance-learning classes.
In this one-hour interactive session, we will identify and evaluate assessment types commonly used in HuskyCT. Dave will share detailed examples of two forms of assessment he has used in the past: 1) Short asynchronous calculated-numeric quizzes, and 2) Synchronous open-book exams. We will discuss tips and tricks in DL assessment strategies with a strong focus on assessments for STEM courses. Join us whether you are just learning or have numerous experiences to share regarding assessment in HuskyCT. There will be time for break-out group discussion.
