2 | Monday, May 07, 2018 | 9:00 AM | Opening Keynote Address: Helping Students Learn In An Age Of Digital Distraction | Our Keynote speaker, Dr. Katie Linder, is an avid writer and researcher with a passion for process and peeking behind the scenes at what it takes to be a successful academic. Currently, she hosts two weekly solo podcasts (Youve Got This and The Anatomy of a Book), a weekly interview-based podcast (Research in Action), and a seasonal podcast (AcademiGig) co-hosted with Dr. Sara Langworthy. Katie also writes a weekly essay series. Her most recent book is The Blended Course Design Workbook: A Practical Guide. Katie is also the director of the Oregon State University Ecampus Research Unit and an associate editor for the International Journal for Academic Development. About her planned Keynote Address, Dr. Linder writes: Our students are inundated with an overwhelming amount of information each day as they navigate social media, peruse various websites, listen to the radio, read print media, and flip through innumerable television channels. Unfortunately, very little of this information is directly connected by our students to their interactions with us in the classroom. In this session, we will explore how to break through the cognitive overload that our students experience on a daily basis and discuss how we can help our students develop effective strategies for learning in the midst of this Age of Digital Distraction. Katie will revisit this topic as part of a followup workshop she's offering Monday afternoon at 2pm, "Creating Effective Online Activities". | Teaching and Technology Collaborative | Guest Presenter | ||||||||||||||||||||

Zooniverse is a volunteer-based crowdsourcing platform used by more than 1.6 million people around the world to participate in research ranging from climate change to Shakespeare, animals to Civil War telegrams. Recently, Zooniverse launched the Project Builder, which lets anyone build a project for free.
We will cover the overall Zooniverse interface, the development of tasks for volunteers to do, how to format and upload images, and start analyzing the data that you receive from volunteers. In addition, we will talk specifically about how this can work in a pedagogical context, including community-focused learning via public document classification and the development of authentic research experiences for undergraduates. Finally, well talk about the kind of digital labor involved in crowdsourcing projects, and how to responsibly work with your community of volunteers, allowing us to "pay it forward". If you have an image set you are interested in developing into a project, please bring that and a laptop with you, otherwise we will have sample image sets available. Participation in this workshop can count toward the Requirement G Pedagogy of the CRLT Graduate Teacher Plus Certificate in Digital Media (GTC+). | Teaching and Technology Collaborative, University Library | Justin Schell | ||||||||||||||||||||

58 | Wednesday, May 09, 2018 | 3:00 PM | Flipping Your Classroom: The Nuts and Bolts | The flipped classroom has garnered considerable attention in the academy in recent years. This approach to teaching involves the use of podcasting, videos, and other strategies to shift students initial exposure to content from the lecture hall to outside of the classroom. In the process, significant portions of class time are freed up for active learning and student engagement.
In this workshop, participants will explore teaching in a flipped classroom and consider how to use this approach in their own teaching. The session will highlight general principles for designing a flipped lesson, including how to hold students accountable for completing pre-class work. The workshop will provide an introduction to relevant instructional technologies and campus resources around them. Finally, participants will explore strategies for designing instruction to engage students during class time. | Academic Innovation, Center for Research on Learning and Teaching, Teaching and Technology Collaborative | Evan Straub (@@estraub), Nicole Tuttle | ||||||||||||||||||||

71 | Thursday, May 10, 2018 | 1:00 PM | From MOOCs To Teach-Outs: An Emerging Format | In the years since their inception, Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) have matured into a medium with a wide range of variable objectives and design models. Last year, the UM Office of Academic Innovation piloted a series of nine Teach-Outs using MOOC platforms to engage a global audience around topics of pressing social urgency. Inspired by the Teach-Ins of 1965, the Teach-Out model was conceived as a two day-long participatory learning opportunity providing 1-4 hours of content, with a constructivist emphasis on active community discussion. In contrast to a conventional assessment design, Teach-Outs culminate in a call to action intended to effect change at the individual, community, or broader societal level.
In this session, Michigans Teach-Out project team will present several case studies of innovative course design, focusing on moving from MOOCs as we have known them to a more agile, event-oriented model with narrower learning objectives and learner-centered outcomes. We will conclude with some generalizable findings with relevance for constructivist online course environments. | Academic Innovation, Teaching and Technology Collaborative | Jeffrey Bennett, Jen Vetter, Steve Welsh | ||||||||||||||||||||
