Virtual Community and Collaboration | 2-minute poll: https://forms.office.com/r/ZgQwUg3gSH
How are you using technology to build and sustain virtual communities, at MSU and beyond MSU?
I'm asking because I have really struggled to answer this for my own grad students and colleagues, I'm frustrated with insufficient answers from MSU IT, and I don't have time to experiment with every tool out there! This question is about connecting and collaborating beyond the level of an individual class. Do you just rely on email and maybe a shared folder somewhere? Do you use Teams with colleagues? Do you have a Team or other online group for all the students in your program? How do you connect with alumni? Do you have social media channels, groups, etc.? Do you use a platform to collaborate with colleagues at other institutions?
The poll has 3 brief questions. Results will appear as word clouds for now but may be re-built into a poll with multi-select items or upvoting-downvoting functions.

Hello! I am Anne Baker and today I will be hosting an AMA on designing elearning modules. I currently work for MSU Extension as an learning and talent devleopment specialist, and because we have 600+ MSU employees dispersed across the state of Michigan, I spend a lot of time designing and delivering elearning modules. Before my current position, I worked as an instructional designer in private industry. I also have worked a lot with language teaching and the use of technology to support language learners. My favorite authoring tool is Articulate Storyline, but good elearning modules can be created in many ways. Let's have a conversation about elearning modules!

ASK ME ANYTHING TODAY with Megan Kudzia - Digital Pedagogy/Research in Current Remote Moment
Megan Kudzia is a Digital Scholarship Librarian at Michigan State University. Based in the Library’s Digital Scholarship Lab, she works with faculty and library colleagues, particularly on designing digital assignments and embedding in classes, and also with students on their digital projects. She is professionally involved in DH@MSU, Code4Lib, ILiADS, and Mi-ALA.
This AMA is answering your questions about digital pedagogy and digital research. Rather than addressing the Core technologies we’re using in teaching online, today we’re grappling with the often-steep learning curve for tools and methods such as website building, coding generally, textual analysis, or digital mapping. If you are struggling with how to structure assignments geared toward this type of work due to our current inability to troubleshoot together in person, or if you are a learner struggling with feelings of frustration as you try to muddle through on your own, let’s talk! Ask me anything.

🧬 Think of AI Uses as Along a Continuum
Monash University describes four examples of AI use in their courses:
1. Explore AI with students to build AI Literacy and discuss academic integrity.
2. Design assessments that focus on process rather than product to build critical thinking.
3. Incorporate new AI-enabled activities, like simulated personas.
4. Use AI for basic assessment, freeing educators to focus on personalized feedback.

😮 Word of the Day: “AI-giarism”
“The unethical practice of using artificial intelligence technologies, particularly generative language models, to generate content that is plagiarized either from original human-authored work or directly from AI-generated content, without appropriate acknowledgement of the original sources or AI’s contribution.” (Chan, 2024)

💬 Try This: Use AI to Make Peer Feedback More Effective
Use this prompt: ‘‘I teach a university class where students work on teams for the semester. You are my assistant, who is going to help me provide formative feedback to my students. I collect peer comments periodically throughout out the semester, and I would like you to summarize the comments into a performance feedback review in a way that is constructive and actionable. Additionally, the students assess themselves and I would like you to compare their responses to the peer feedback. The output should be in the form of a letter, and please exclude anything that is inappropriate for the workplace.’’ [If there are less than 2 comments for a student, please provide generic feedback only.]
