On-Demand Workshop Videos

While many opportunities for training and professional development are synchronous, the Center for Teaching and Learning (CTL) offers this collection of videos for those who cannot attend our workshops or want an on-demand overview. Additionally, our collection of brief video tutorials can be found on the Toolkit Shelf. And the CTL Blog also offers some videos in its Quick Look series.

Workshop videos listed below are arranged chronologically. Use the drop-down menu to navigate to videos for a specific academic year. Optionally, you can search our entire collection by title and/or key words.

CTL was  happy to welcome Caitlin Carter, Scholarly Communication and Open Access  Policy Fellow at the Welch Medical Library, as the facilitator for this  Toolkit workshop. The session discussed finding and using openly  licensed teaching and learning materials, including open educational  resources (OER). OER allows instructors to flexibly and transparently  create and reuse learning objects like videos, lecture slides,  textbooks, images, and course modules in their own classrooms.  Participants learned to identify the characteristics of Open Education;  summarize Open Education's position within the Open Movement (related to  Open Access and Open Science); assess copyright and open licenses to  determine the proper use of teaching and learning materials; and  determine strategies for finding relevant Open Educational Resources.

As faculty  at the school move to a remote teaching model, knowing how to use  CoursePlus — the school's learning management system — is more important  than ever. Many tools in CoursePlus can save you time and minimize the  hassles of course administration. Whether or not you're familiar with  CoursePlus, this session introduces time-saving tips for making the  system work for you and your students. This includes information on: a  digital syllabus for keeping your students on track with your course  goals; Drop Boxes for collecting student work; an Online Library for  document organization (and posting your Zoom recordings); delivering  online exams; and a Gradebook for keeping students apprised of their  performance in your class.

We offer several opportunities for LiveTalk training in person (in the  NSPH Multimedia studios) at the start of every term. In response to  recent events, for Term 4 AY19-20 we shifted the training to be online.  This recording was made during one of our three sessions. It teaches  navigating several techniques important to managing a LiveTalk,  specifically as related to Zoom. It's worth noting -- managing a  LiveTalk is definitely not the same as simply having a meeting via Zoom!

This session  was dedicated to moving assessment activities from the face-to-face  classroom to the remote, online platform. It focused on incorporating  academic integrity through clear communication and proactive design. In  addition, participants learned about alternatives to traditional exams  that can be considered for both formative and summative assessments;  options for maintaining existing exam formats in the online platform;  and CoursePlus tools and their settings that allow faculty to build new,  and sometimes stronger, methods of assessment plus techniques for  efficient grading and personalized feedback.

Have you ever wondered whether your course was designed backward?

Typically,  faculty start the course design process by identifying the content that  they want their students to absorb, but there is a more effective,  goal-oriented method called Backwards Design. In this workshop, we will  explore aspects of Backwards Course Design, which focuses on the end  goals, or learning objectives, of the course. We will discuss the  importance of starting with learning objectives, what it means for a  learning objective to be SMART, and how to design assessments that align  with those objectives.
