|
|
The IUPUI Center for Teaching and Learning seeks proposals from instructors teaching at higher education institutions across Indiana for the 2023 E.C. Moore Symposium on Excellence in Teaching. A key component of the symposium is the communication and sharing of new ideas in teaching and learning that promote engaging, inclusive, and equitable student learning experiences and student success. We invite proposals for three types of sessions — interactive presentations, TED-like talks, and Show and Tell sessions — showcasing your latest endeavors in teaching. The 2023 E.C. Moore Symposium will be held on Friday, March 24, 9 a.m. – 12:45 p.m. at the IUPUI Campus Center.

This workshop introduces faculty and staff to the Quality Matters (QM) Rubric and to the QM Process. Quality Matters is a nationally recognized quality assurance organization for online course design, and the QM Process is a faculty-led peer review process that uses the research-based standards (criteria) of the QM Rubric to certify online courses. Eventually, many online courses within the IU system will undergo the QM Process with the goal of achieving national QM recognition. Faculty may also use the QM Rubric as a guide to design online courses. And, for faculty who are interested, this course serves as a pre-requisite for QM's Peer Reviewer Course, which is a required course for faculty who seek certification as a QM Peer Reviewer, allowing them to participate in QM course reviews for courses created here at IU and at other universities.
The workshop is offered at IUPUI as a one-day synchronous Zoom workshop from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.with a one hour break for lunch. To receive the QM certificate of completion for this workshop, participants must be present for and participate in the entire workshop.

Are you interested in building a learning community in your class by encouraging students to ask one another for help? Are you interested in reducing email, while at the same time getting your answer to an individual student’s question to everyone in the class? InScribe might be the tool for you. Students can post their questions, including anonymously, and answer one another’s questions. You and your teaching team can endorse their answers and include clarifications as needed. This saves you time and gives students access to answers any time day or night, while your endorsement of answers builds student confidence knowing that the answers have been vetted. Hear from three instructors who are using InScribe in very different class types: in format (in-person, asynchronous, and flipped), in class size (ranging from 20-350), and in student type (undergraduate, graduate, and medical school). The presenters will share why and how they are using InScribe, any challenges they and their students faced, and tips for using this tool in your classes.
This event fulfills the following IUB Graduate Teaching Apprenticeship Program requirement: Associate Requirement 2.2: Attend one event offered by CITL: instructional technologies

Join this webinar to learn how to integrate InScribe into your Canvas course. InScribe is available to all IU students at no additional cost and is used to promote peer learning by giving students an online space where they can post questions and provide answers to peers. Instructors can allow students to post their questions anonymously and can also endorse students’ answers. InScribe enables students to get the help they need when they are working on their homework and peers can often provide help much faster than instructors can. Instructors, particularly those in large classes, use it as their main communication tool and report that they receive fewer emails from students giving them more time to focus on course issues that truly need their attention.
