SUMMARY:Webinar: Value for Money: Should Online Education be Cheaper?
DESCRIPTION:The COVID-19 outbreak led to a massive uptake in online education worldwide and rapidly formed or changed public opinions about the quality of online education. As a result\, there is a debate developing on whether online education provides value for money\, shaped by institutions’ concerns about cost effectiveness and students’ requests for tuition refunds. \nIn the post-pandemic era\, online education has become integrated into educational practices. More institutions than ever exploit online education to increase enrolments and revenues\, but this doesn’t guarantee the pedagogical quality of their online programs. On the other hand\, students who choose to participate in online education also bring certain expectations about its accessibility and flexibility — and expect it to be cheaper than face-to-face education. \nThis webinar is a conversation framed by different global perspectives and experiences in online education\, exploring the value-for-money topic by asking “Should online education be cheaper?”

SUMMARY:AI Student Cheating Tools – What you don’t know but should.
DESCRIPTION:Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools are making it easier than ever for students to cheat or assist with assignments and tests. Yes\, there has been a movement for proctored online exams and plagiarism tools\, but what about those low-stakes assignments? Is it possible for a student to fake their way through an entire college course? How about an entire college degree? \n  \nIn discovering over 20 FREE AI-assistive technologies\, we have identified various ways these AI tools can be used by students to cheat\, or assist\, their way through their education. While we will not be identifying these tools by name\, there are still common themes between the tools that professors should be aware of. We are only touching the surface of this topic and hope to begin a collaborative discussion about the future of AI in education. \n  \nIn this session we will: \n\nIdentify the different types of cheating tools that could potentially be used.\nDiscuss ideas for how professors may identify potential cheaters.\nDiscuss the ethics of using AI assistive technology in student coursework

SUMMARY:Webinar | The Dual Role of Faculty Advising in Faculty Leadership and Student Success: A Time for Discussion
DESCRIPTION:As Carol Moore notes in her article\, “Advising: Meeting Student Needs?”\, “only 22% of colleges have the advising function staffed by professional advisors.” At schools with professional advisors\, students often encounter a well-oiled machine of advising that transitions them from their first years of college with a general advisor to more focused work with a major-specific faculty member or advisor. Students at institutions without professional advisors need that same kind of support and guidance in navigating their academic careers\, and if they do not receive it\, they may struggle to retain at the institution. At the majority of institutions\, meanwhile\, undergraduate students are too often left with faculty advisors who are neither trained nor given the time to provide appropriate advising. \nJoin us for a one-hour facilitated discussion on the challenges of faculty advising and how to equip faculty with the skills to be successful advisors. You’ll have the opportunity to discuss how your institution prepares faculty for advising\, as well as what changes you’d need to make to incorporate advising as service into promotion and tenure portfolios. The author\, Carol Moore\, will be present to answer your questions and share her thoughts about the changes needed to ensure student success in today’s higher ed landscape. \nFacilitator:   Carol Moore. B.A.\, M.A. PhD

SUMMARY:Creating the professional biosketch that gets you noticed!
DESCRIPTION:The needs for a healthcare professional to have a current biosketch are many. Conference planners review biosketches when selecting speakers.  Moderators use biosketches when introducing speakers. Colleagues use biosketches when referring professionals.  Many appointment considerations begin with a biosketch. \nWriting a biosketch that gets a person noticed is both an art and science.  Through this presentation\, attendees will gain a better understanding of what material to include in the biosketch that highlights the individual’s talent. \n

SUMMARY:Webinar | How to Engage Silent Learners
DESCRIPTION:Many of us learn best in silence and need time to reflect before saying or writing our thoughts. In synchronous online meetings (and in physical meetings) we often mistake visual and vocal activity for engagement and learning\, while silence is interpreted as a lack of interest or even laziness. \nBecause synchronous meetings tend to be dominated by a vocal minority\, contributions are mostly spontaneous with little time for reflection. There are many reasons people are silent in class or in a meeting. We must develop new methods to allow quiet attendees to present their ideas and engage in discussion instead of being drowned out by their more outspoken colleagues. \nBreakout groups can be very rewarding but only if you already know the rest of the group or have a group of confident\, talkative participants. Many students simply leave the meeting when breakout groups are announced. This is not typically due to a lack of interest but a fear of discussing complex issues with a group of strangers. \nIn this webinar\, you’ll learn how online tools and methods can extend the discussion to engage all participants in the way that suits them best. Simple techniques to make online meetings more inclusive include using more silent reflection time\, written discussion and greater emphasis on the asynchronous activity before and after the synchronous session. \nKey takeaways \nYou’ll come away with a better understanding of how to: \n\nIdentify and understand reasons for silence in online meetings\nUse periods of silence in online meetings to foster reflection and widen the discussion\nCreate engaging and inclusive online activities that do not always depend on video and audio\nPromote the strengths of silent learners through more multimodal online activities\nStretch the meeting through the use of collaborative online tools\nCreate the right preconditions for fruitful breakout sessions\n\nFacilitated by:  Alastair Creelman | e-learning Specialist\, Linnaeus University\, Sweden (now retired)

SUMMARY:An Untapped Faculty Resource: Customized learning modules to enhance student learning
DESCRIPTION:The CETL Instructional Design Team as has created learning projects that have been presented at large conferences on a national and international stage\, described in published articles\, analyzed for research\, and furthered the scholarship of teaching and learning for many WesternU faculty. Some designs are more complex than others\, but all with the goal of enhancing the student learning experience. From teaching schizophrenia pharmacology\, to outlining lifestyle medicine\, to an EHR interface where students can select labs for case-based learning modules or interactions that teach students to make fiscally responsible decisions\, the IDLD Team can create a custom online learning module unique to your course needs. \n  \nSo\, as a faculty member\, how can you partner with the CETL ID Team to expand student learning? \n  \nIn this session we will: \n\nDiscuss project exemplars created by the IDLD Team\nIdentify resources to further inspire your creative learning models\nExplain how you too can partner with CETL to develop your next project and enhance student learning in your course

SUMMARY:CETL & WSC Present: Creating Agendas and Taking Minutes for a More Productive Meeting
DESCRIPTION:In this CETL session\, we will explore how to take minutes in a more clear and actionable way! Setting our meetings up for success starts with the agenda and continues with recording notes that are easy to follow after the meeting is over. \nUsing a template created by the staff at the College of Graduate Nursing (CGN) and adopted by the WesternU Staff Council (WSC) to standardize meeting minutes and clearly identify clear action items\, this presentation will go through our best practices for taking minutes for more efficient (and hopefully shorter) meetings! \nBy the end of this session\, attendees will be better able to: \n\nRecognize the importance of the agenda-setter and recorder\nUnderstand how to capture and organize key ideas in discussion and how it helps meeting/team morale\nDifferentiate between discussion\, decisions\, and action items\nDescribe the flow of an action item from being added to be closed out\n\n  \nWho should attend? Any WesternU employee who host or takes notes/minutes for meetings (normally recurring) where there are action items that will need to be completed.
