We had a great time with our guest panelists, who shared their OER experiences, tips, and insights with us... you can watch either the complete recording, or you can watch shorter clips of the individual panelists. Enjoy!

Join us via Webex next Tuesday, March 8, to hear from faculty panelists who use OER - how they got started, how they made it work, and how these Open Resources have helped their students:
Have you ever asked yourself:
How do I set-up a course Level Grading Policy in Canvas? Can I over-ride my course Level Grading Policy for a specific assignment? Can I hide grades from students if they have already posted due to my course level or assignment level grading policies? If so, click this post to find the answers to your questions!
Are you required to collect assessment data from your course this semester? Need just a bit of a refresher as to how to go about the process before submitting final grades? I have some helpful resources for you!
Feedback is any type of response to student work with the purpose of improving learning and performance. To be useful, meaningful, and effective, feedback needs to be timely (or fast). The sooner students get assignments back and learn how they can improve, the better. Feedback should be constructive, a positive learning experience providing direction and guidance with the ultimate goal to help students rise to the next level and inspire an, "I can do this!" attitude. Tip #1 Goal focused, not grade focused Not ALL feedback should be paired with a grade. Align student feedback with assignment goals and keep feedback precise. Help the student to understand HOW they are doing in relation to the goal and WHERE to go next. Provide clear, concrete, specific examples for improvement. How much time do you spend grading each week? How many assignments do you grade in a semester? During Hybrid Summit, we asked CGCC faculty participants, "Approximately how many assignments do you have in your gradebook per course?" Check out the responses below. Where would your response fit on the chart? Grading can be one of the most challenging and time consuming tasks we do as faculty. It is important to think through all aspects of your grading system and explain to students how their work will be graded. Clear assignment directions, expectations, and due dates set the stage for assignment and grading success.
If you are like me, when you first began using Canvas, the fact that items you might assign your students to engage with appeared in so many places within the platform was pretty confusing. You probably thought to yourself, "why can’t I just do everything in one place"? However, as I began to work with Canvas more and more I was better able to understand the logic of its structure and now I would like to share what I have learned with you!
Last week's meme challenge only resulted in two submissions, so I flipped a (virtual) coin to choose the winner!
