Remote Teaching Best Practices Webinars

In response to the concerns of faculty and grad workers about planning for online teaching, our union organized a series of Remote Teaching Best Practices Webinars to share knowledge about confronting the unique challenges of remote instruction. Below, you’ll find the Zoom recordings for each of the three sessions, along with supporting materials.

Webinar 1: Student Engagement and Fostering Student Peer Learning Relationships

Led by Darrin York, Professor of Chemistry and Director of the Cyberlearning and Innovations Research Center. Professor York and his colleagues described the impressive combination of technology and supporting infrastructure that they have developed at CIRC to enhance Chemistry students’ learning and engagement and shared the lessons they have learned and how these proved useful as they moved courses to fully remote.

Webinar 2: Addressing Equity, Disability, and Access Needs in Student-Centered Remote Teaching

Led by Drs. Vikki Katz and Amy Jordan, faculty in the School of Communication and Information, and Kathryn Loder-Murphy from the Office of Disability Services, discussing the results of a survey of more than 3,000 undergraduates about remote learning and how faculty, departments, and the university can best support students’ learning as we move into a remote fall.
