Proponents of the grading philosophy known as minimal marking argue that “the best mark is that which allows students to correct the most on their own with the least help.” In this workshop, we’ll talk about why we assign grades to individual assignments, explore the ideas behind minimal marking, and consider how rubrics can save time and create a fairer and more instructive experience for your students. For this workshop, you will complete pre-work available in Canvas modules and then apply what you have learned in a sychronous Zoom session on 9/25.

This webinar will introduce Panopto, the new video platform instructors can use to create course materials. We will cover how faculty can use the recording feature to create micro-lectures (with PowerPoint or Keynote) and add quizzes - either as an assignment or as a self-check mechanism.
For the first event in our New Faculty Series, join Siobhán McCusker, Museum Educator for University Audiences, and Ray Williams, Director of Education and Academic Affairs, in a discussion about how you can utilize the Jack S.
