    What are Teaching Talks?

    Join us for an hour of your day to connect with your colleagues. These sessions serve as a springboard for discussions around a topic related to teaching and learning but really give you the chance to share the success and challenges you are facing in our new teaching reality. Each session has a topical theme but is shaped by the participants’ discussion, needs, and interests.

    The thematic focus for this particular session is designing online activities and assessments that are inclusive.

    Proposed Objectives:

    • Discuss multi-modal activities and assessments for inclusivity
    • Discuss simple things you can do and why they’re a good idea
    • Review common pitfalls
    • Share what’s on your mind

    Presenters: Tina Huey and Martina Rosenberg, CETL
