Here's an interesting new bit from Edutopia -- 'Helping Students Navigate New Technology Responsibly' -- on how one educator is fostering use and critique, and evaluation of AI output among her students:

If we are completely honest with ourselves, many students come into our courses lacking basic planning and organization skills. Even when armed with a syllabus, course schedule, or online course modules, many still have difficulty planning for and carrying out weekly assignments and/or projects by designated due dates.

To assist them, I suggest that we include due dates for assignments, projects, quizzes and exams not just in our syllabi or online course modules, but that we should also include what I call an 'Important Due Dates' tab in the D2L pages we set up for our courses. Likewise, I suggest we do so whether we teach in a traditional face to face setting, hybrid, or online.

A quarter century of teaching undergraduates leads me to conclude that few consult the syllabus (or online modules) in more than a cursory way after Week One. More generally, when people have to search for something, they are less likely to find it. So, be sure to drag your 'Important Due Dates' tab to the very top of all other tabs on the left side of your D2L course content page, making it as easy as possible for students to find.

They will then be able to access all of the dates for assignments, projects, quizzes, or exams in one place without the need to wade through denser, text heavy syllabi, course schedules, or weekly course modules. At a glance, they can find what they need to know and prepare accordingly.

Given the various challenges so many young people seem to face in 2021, why not make things as easy as we can for the students in our courses?

Greetings! I'm Dustin De Felice and tomorrow (10/22) I will be hosting an AMA on ideas for Hyflex classrooms. With the addition of cameras and microphones in classroom spaces across campus, the ability to link students online and in person has never been greater. While there are still challenges with this type of classroom, I have been exploring various formats, scheduling strategies, and modality choices with an eye toward future semesters. Please share your questions, add a thought, or even a description of how your classroom looks now by commenting on this post and I'll share what I know. Looking forward to having a conversation about Hyflex classrooms!

ASK ME ANYTHING with Justin Wigard - Graphic Possibilities: Teaching with Comics in the Online Classroom
As part of my ongoing work with the Graphic Possibilities research workshop here at MSU, I approach comics through two interrelated approaches, critical inquiry and engaged pedagogy, and have taught comics in several different classroom formats (lower-level in-person classes, various online synchronous environments, and most recently, in a fully asynchronous online classroom). Throughout the day, I will be online talking through approaches to teaching comics in the online classroom, including but not limited to different methodological approaches (quantitative and qualitative), how to choose the best comic for the class, and even some helpful comics-making pedagogical strategies (best tips, assessment, resources, etc). Ask Me Anything! :)

Research shows that diversity makes us smarter. Designing an inclusive classroom that allows students to share differing opinions in a brave space where people are treated with dignity can result in good learning outcomes for all. Conflict is a natural part of learning, and differences of opinion expressed in appropriate ways allow everyone to grow. An inclusive classroom allows the instructor to manage conflict in a way that harnesses differences so that they serve as learning opportunities for all.
