Teaching & Learning News
 

As we approach the winter term, DCAL will close during Dartmouth’s break from December 19th, 2020 through January 2nd, 2021.  We hope you, too, will enjoy a relaxing and rejuvenating break.

 

The academic continuity teams continue to support educators at Dartmouth as they prepare for winter term courses.  Remember to visit teachremote.dartmouth.edu if you haven’t in awhile – we are continually updating the site with new information, training, and ideas!


New resources

To make our programming more accessible, we now include a synopsis and other materials from our workshops and presentations.  Visit (or revisit) some of our recent offerings:

 

Small Teaching Online: Practical Strategies for Engaging Students During Covid-19 

DCAL was pleased to welcome special guest Flower Darby, educator and author, recently for a discussion on the strategies that work to engage students in the remote learning environment. 

 

Co-Creating Remote Learning Experiences with Your Students 

When COVID-19 moved teaching and learning online last spring, Dartmouth's two-term Senior Design Challenge course was interrupted mid-stream. In a recent DCAL session, instructor Eugene Korsunskiy talks about the creative pivot that kept things rolling.

Assessing Learning - Remote and Online.

Key take-aways and the recording of a recent DCAL session on assessing learning in the remote teaching and learning environment.

Upcoming Opportunities

The Inclusive Pathways for Advancement in the Academy (IPAA) program is a faculty development, onboarding, and retention initiative that provides space for recently hired faculty to deepen their sense of community as they explore & enrich their identities as teachers and scholars. This year's program will convene over 6 Zoom sessions, starting on 1/12/21.

Applications are due 12/11/20. For more info & to apply: http://dartgo.org/IPAA

 

Anti-Racist Pedagogy Learning Community

Are you interested in bringing anti-racist work into your teaching?  In the winter, DCAL is facilitating a learning community where participants will focus on learning about and incorporating anti-racist pedagogy into their teaching practice. Anti-racism is the active process of dismantling the systems, structures, policies, practices, and attitudes that uphold racism and the unequal distribution of power. Anti-racist pedagogy asks us to interrogate and disrupt these same inequities within our educational institutions and classrooms.

 

The learning community will engage in reading, reflection, discussion, and design together during a series of meetings in Winter 2021.  Apply here
