Our learning community will examine the increasing importance of digital collaborative learning for 21st-century learners, student success, and a smooth transition to global digital ecology/economy after graduation. Related pedagogical activities will include how we might utilize digital collaborative learning to a greater degree in our courses for other leading-edge pedagogical intentions. Beside the OFASD website, we will publicize our community via email at the start of the 2022-2023AY in August and September and invite interested parties to join us.

First Meeting: Friday, September 30, 2022 at 10 am for approximately 90 minutes. Upcoming meeting days/times TBA according to participant needs or preferences where possible

All who are interested in digital, collaborative, multimodal learning, and the use of technologies to enhance teaching are welcome, especially graduate students and new faculty who are interested in eventually publishing work that develops based on their participation in this learning community.

After attending a learning community yesterday afternoon (and looking at MSU's online guidelines) on diversity, equity, and inclusion, I took a stab at putting together a two-minute Doodly video on the subject but pitched to the students in my courses. I've embedded it within the Week Six module of each course since part of student teamwork next week will be assessing their team dynamic, habits, and processes in the completion of Project #1, which teams are turning in on Friday, October 1st. Invariably, there will be a few teams who had interpersonal and/or work habit problems due to procrastination, poor planning, or weak organization. I've tried to use very basic DEI guidelines/definitions as a way to help teams think about their approach and improve collaboration for the latter 2/3 of the semester. See what you think. I hope I am not missing the point somehow. Here's the link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UDX61xCHN74

As you are designing learning experiences in or out of the classroom, what are your “go-to” resources? (Please share details and a link to more information if you have it!)

I first learned about ungrading from my the APA's Society for Teaching of Psychology facebook group, and they had so many conversations around this that they started a slack channel. I haven't kept up with it but they use specs grading, which is perhaps a better fit for larger courses. I tried a version of this during remote learning in 2020. Here's the slack channel if you're interested in joining those conversations: https://join.slack.com/t/specsgradingi-pm17499/shared_invite/zt-1wqybjovp-RXBIkLwF0vxmERppKBMGWw
