During this workshop, we’ll explore how you can use Release Conditions to create a custom learning path for your course materials in Brightspace. We’ll introduce Intelligent Agents, which can automatically send emails to students who meet course criteria you specify. Finally, we’ll share examples of how you can use Release Conditions and Intelligent Agents together to further customize learning paths and enable timely student communication.   

In this session we’ll focus on:

Creating and previewing Assignment (individual and group)
Settings and connecting Assignments to Grades
Editing and reordering Assignments
Evaluating student submissions (including annotations and rubrics)
Using the Submission Log for tracking student work

This workshop provides an overview of strategies for grading student work and providing feedback. We’ll demonstrate tools to provide students feedback (inline grading, audio/video, rubrics),  different grading workflows, including Quick Eval, and a snapshot of Brightspace’s automated feedback tool – Intelligent Agents. We’ll also show how students can find their grades and feedback. Please note, if you are interested in learning how to set up your Grade Book, please view “Brightspace Grades.”

Join us in the viewing of a webinar hosted by Robert LeGary and Diana LaRocco as they explore the Universal Design for Learning (UDL) Guideline, Physical Action. Providing options for physical action isn't simply about technological wizardry; it's about human-centered design. We consider the needs of learners first and then engineer the environment to support them. This might involve incorporating assistive technologies, offering different seating arrangements, providing manipulatives for hands-on learning, or encouraging movement breaks during lessons. To help students navigate and respond within a learning experience, it is essential to continuously reflect on curricular goals, assessments, learning methods, materials, and the environment. Together, we will explore the iterative process of teaching actions deliberately focused on addressing learner variability and creating an inclusive and exciting performance of knowledge.

In Brightspace, the Quiz tool is used for both quizzes and tests.  In this session we’ll show the workflow for creating quizzes, including:

Creating questions and question types
Creating a question library
Building a Quiz
Grading a Quiz
Quiz statistics and logs

This one-hour workshop explores how faculty can use Brightspace to support an equitable learning environment. The workshop offers course design recommendations and connects Brightspace tools to these four equity-minded principles: 

Fostering Student Sense of Belonging  
Creating Course Structure  
Supporting Student Executive Functioning 
Building Relationships

Join us for a book group to read The Norton Guide to Equity-Minded Teaching together. This guide is a hands-on exploration of the empirical research around creating equitable educational outcomes and examples of small and large teaching practices that can occur in classes of all shapes and sizes.  If you’re curious about inclusive or equity-minded teaching and wondering where to start, this book is for you!  Co-authored by a team with varied disciplinary and teaching experience, it has something for everyone.   Our first of three meetings will be on October 9 at noon.
