SUMMARY:Brightspace Training: Accommodations and Accessibility
DESCRIPTION:Brightspace Training: Accommodations and Accessibility\nDate: Friday\, October 4th\, 2024 \nTime: 12:00-1:30pm (AT) / 11:00-12:30pm (ET) / 8:00-9:30am (PT) \nRegister here! \nSession Description:   \nHow can Brightspace support student accommodation? What are the accessibility features\, and how can I ensure that I am thinking about some UDL principles in my teaching. This session will address these questions through demonstration\, trying a few things out on our own\, and coming back to community with questions and learning points. Our focus will be on the “Manage Special Access” options in Assignments and Quizzes\, as well as what accessibility looks like in Brightspace and with your use of Announcements and Discussions as well as how to approach some aspects of learning analytics with accessibility in mind. \nPlease note: While the focus of these trainings is on TFSO launching in Brightspace for Fall 2024\, any and all interested faculty and instructors across YU + TFS are more than welcome to register and join us for these sessions in advance of their own courses moving to Brightspace.

SUMMARY:Humanizing University Students’ Online Learning Experiences
DESCRIPTION:Humanizing University Students’ Online Learning Experiences\nDate: Wednesday\, October 16th 2024 \nTime: 4:30-6:00pm (AT) / 3:30-5:00pm (ET) / 12:30-2:00pm (PT) \nRegister here! \nWorkshop Description: \nAre you seeking strategies to create a sense of community and belonging in your online courses and digital teaching? Have you ever wondered how to infuse empathy and understanding into your virtual interactions with students? Have you found yourself in a dilemma where you aim to encourage the use of technologies for enhanced engagement in online teaching and learning\, yet want to caution students about potential risks associated with these technologies? As the prevalence of online courses and components rises and as the diversity within the online and virtual student demographic expands\, the imperative of infusing humanistic elements into online teaching and learning becomes increasingly apparent. \nA burgeoning body of literature in online education underscores the need for pedagogical approaches that prioritize inclusivity\, diversity\, and accessibility\, and that consider the social implications of technological incorporation. The 2023 Educause Horizon Report underscores the growing sophistication and accessibility of technologies\, notably with the emergence of Generative AI tools. Given this landscape\, a critical and ethical orientation towards humanizing online learning via increasingly digital pedagogies emerges as an urgent necessity for Canadian higher education institutions. \nThis workshop aims to encourage reflexivity in faculty and instructors\, prompting us all to critically assess our previous and ongoing practices in humanizing (and/or the use of potentially dehumanizing) aspects of online teaching and learning. Together\, we will foster discussions on how educational technologies can – and should – be critically and ethically integrated into our increasingly digital teaching contexts.
