SUMMARY:A More Inclusive ADDIE Model
DESCRIPTION:All learners should have a safe\, productive and inclusive space to learn regardless of race\, sex\, gender\, religion\, physical limitations. The importance of diversity\, equity and inclusion (DEI) is important and can be applied to courses using the ADDIE model. The ADDIE Model is  a well-known instructional design framework. Applying DEI to course design can make all students feel welcome and adds nine substages that bring DEI components into pedagogical practices. Join this session to learn about the Inclusive ADDIE Model and how to implement it in your courses. \n  \nLearning Objectives: \n\nDescribe the ADDIE Model\nList the DEI components of the model\nDescribe what the instructional design process should avoid

SUMMARY:Online Learning Requirements and 5 Focus Factors of RSI
DESCRIPTION:Many of us do not regularly read policies on higher education online learning requirements and regulations. Yet\, during the pandemic\, the U.S. Department of Education issued updated rules and requirements for distance education. These updated legal federal requirements now include something called “Regular and Substantive Interaction” – or RSI for short – between a student and an instructor. During this session\, we will focus on the DoE RSI requirements for online teaching and learning environments including asynchronous\, synchronous\, and blended/hybrid platforms. \n  \nWhat do these recent changes mean for faculty and the programs offering online education? How can faculty prepare their online course to meet these mandated requirements? What elements should be included within an online course to meet the RSI requirements? Where can faculty go for help? \n  \nLearning Objectives: \n\nDescribe the updated definition of distance education\nRecognize the differences between a correspondence course and distance education\nDefine RSI\nList 5 factors that are the focus of RSI\nIdentify how the IDLD team can evaluate your online course to meet RSI requirements

SUMMARY:Webinar | How to Improve and Promote Student Engagement in the Online Classroom
DESCRIPTION:Lectures rarely provide optimal learning environments that secure effective\, sustained learning outcomes. Online learning requires classrooms designed to engage learners and build a sense of ownership of their knowledge. \nAs we explore the future of learning in higher education post-pandemic\, what do we need to know about student engagement? How do we design our classes and the learning experience to balance what we need to teach with engaged learning? \nWe must ask ourselves: Are student engagement and activity-based learning possible in all subjects? What does the research tell us about student engagement? What are some of the cautions about student engagement we should be aware of? \nIn this interactive webinar\, Dr. Amy Sloan brings to the table her considerable experience in program and course design and a strong focus on non-traditional adult learners. \nKey Takeaways \nIn this webinar\, participants explore: \n\nWhy student engagement is a critical variable in student success and what this means for course design and delivery\nExamples of effective student engagement\nThe five Cs of student engagement: connection\, consistency\, content\, community\, and compassion\nThe pitfalls of designs for engagement and the importance of tying active learning to learning outcomes\n\nSpeaker:  Amy Sloan\, Ed.D. | Lecturer\, Department of Curriculum & Instruction at Baylor University

SUMMARY:Webinar | How is the Pandemic Affecting the Future of OER?
DESCRIPTION:Multiple surveys of students\, faculty\, and administrators have all shown that the pandemic is producing fundamental changes in teaching and learning across all higher education. All groups report more optimistic views of online and hybrid learning\, as well as a greater desire for technology integration in all courses. Resistance to the use of digital materials is disappearing\, with students and faculty both expressing a greater desire to replace print materials with digital. \nMany of these changes bode well for the future growth of OER adoption. However\, other trends\, such as the time required for faculty to mold their courses into new formats have prevented them from spending the time required to find and adopt new materials. Likewise\, commercial publishers have embraced many of these changes and now represent a very different alternative than they were prior to the pandemic. Which of these competing pressures will prevail? \nAttendees will gain a much fuller understanding of OER\, allowing them to better understand if OER is an appropriate option for their institution and/or teaching. \nSpeakers: Jeff Seaman\, Ph.D. | Director – Bay View Analytics \n                 Julia Seaman\, Ph.D. | Director of Research – Bay View Analytics \n                 Daniel Williamson  | Managing Director – OpenStax

SUMMARY:Getting Started with Quality Matters
DESCRIPTION:Quality Matters began with a small group of Maryland colleagues who were trying to solve a common problem among institutions: how do we measure and guarantee the quality of a course? This question became important because many institutions were trying to create a system where they could share available seats in their online courses with other institutions. Because of this\, they worked to create courses of quality for their students\, regardless of where the course originated. In 2003\, the colleagues created the Quality Matters program\, which would create a scalable process for course quality assurance.  \nIn this session\, participants will be introduced to Quality Matters and how it can be helpful in effective course development. Participants will also look at some of the rubrics that are central to Quality Matters implementation.   \n  \n  \nSession Objectives:  \n\nProvide background and overview of Quality Matters  \nReview Quality Matters rubrics for higher education \nDescribe the benefits of using Quality Matters for course quality and development \n\n

SUMMARY:Connecting Educational Concepts with Mind Mapping Techniques
DESCRIPTION:Mind mapping is a technique used to visually outline information. By using words\, pictures and diagrams\, mind mapping can help professors teach connections in course material\, as well as help students study. \n  \nThe main concept\, or idea\, is at the center of the mind map. From the nucleus-center\, themes associated with the main concept branch out; and from each of these themes\, additional branches or twigs begin to grow as attributing information begins to unveil itself as a subset of the theme or idea. Mind mapping technique can help students visualize subject content and conceptually display how various ideas are interconnected. \n  \nIn this CETL Session we will: \n– explain the basic theory of mind mapping \n– identify how larger concepts can be broken down into smaller themes and ideas \n– list various educational technology tools to assist in the creation of a mind map \n– identify example mind maps used in medical education \n– apply new knowledge by creating a mind map \n

SUMMARY:Webinar - How to Use the HyFlex Method to Teach Online and In Person at the Same Time
DESCRIPTION:Faculty and instructors are facing instructional challenges never faced before from having to rapidly move their courses online. They have learned a lot\, but have a sense “they can do more!”. Faculty and instructors are also starting to realize not all of their students will be in class or online next year – there will be more “hybrid” teaching which requires a new\, flexible approach. \nFour takeaways from this webinar: \n• Learn how to use this flexible course framework that offers a combination of online\, synchronous\, and face-to-face options (hybrid) in a course where students are able to choose when and how they attend (flexible).\n• Develop successful strategies to engage online and in class students in a single class session.\n• Understand how HyFlex options prepare an institution (or program) for any other situation requiring an immediate shift to fully online.\n• Learn how assessments for and of learning can work when students are studying the same course in class and online.

SUMMARY:5 Tips to help Increase Student Morale in a time of Remote Learning
DESCRIPTION:Look…this pandemic has been hard on all of us. Each of us battling our own unique challenges; and\, after 11 months\, it’s no wonder that we’re all exhausted by our “new normal”. Students are no different\, and for many\, morale is low. \n  \nNo surprise to many of us\, EdWeek is reporting that more than 50% of students and 75% of instructors within a remote-learning environment have lower morale than before the pandemic. The U.K. Office of National Statistics reported that more than half of the students surveyed identified that their well-being and mental health has worsened these past 11 months. And\, according to a report by The Jed Foundation\, 63% of students say their mental health is worse since the start of the pandemic. No surprise\, student morale is low. \n  \nIn this session\, we will hone in on five (5) tips to help increase student morale within the online learning environment\, and how sometimes those simple changes can make all the difference. Please also bring your thinking-caps because we will open the floor for the opportunity to share conversations and our own experiences in making the remote learning environment better for students. \n
