October 25, 2019 @ 1:00 pm 1:45 pm

C-I 19 Logo
Description

This session includes two 15-minute presentations with time for Q&A.

Group Discussions for Increasing Interaction, Engagement, and Equity
Whole-class discussions can be difficult to follow with multiple conversations happening at once. Some students dominate and others get lost in the mix. Many participate with minimal replies. The presenter will demonstrate how she uses Canvas Groups and Discussions to create more intimate discourse. The result is a more equitable and engaging student-to-student interaction.

By the end of the session, participants will be able to:
1) Recognize the benefits of group work online
2) Create Canvas group discussions

Data at Your Fingertips: Supporting the Success of all Learners
How are students engaging in your course? Enter Analytics Beta, a visual dashboard that provides instructors an in-depth look at how students are engaging at any point in time. Hear how one instructor has used this tool to support students by making informed pedagogical and design choices, as well as provide critical communication when students need it most. Data at work!

By the end of the session, participants will be able to:
1) Identify at least one Analytics Beta feature/function that supports student learning success
2) Identify at least one Analytics Beta feature/function that supports the instructor role
