Enhancing student engagement with the readings
Wednesday, June 19, 10:00AM – 11:00AM
Online
Facilitator: Tina Huey, CETL Faculty Development
Can students meet your course objectives without reading the texts? If so, what is the value of assigning reading in your course? What learning objectives does reading help students meet? These foundational questions will frame our discussion. Techniques and tools will be introduced for:
- “Guided reading” facilitation
- Creating a reading guide
- Annotation tools (Perusall, Voicethread)
- Games, remixes, and other activities for engaging with a text
- Modeling engagement
Ideas will be shared for curating a reading list, including: alphabetic texts vs. audio and video; amount of reading assigned; and organizing access to course readings.
