Online Course Quality Rubric: Domain 2 Workshop

As part of our launch of our new UIS Online Course Quality Rubric, COLRS staff is focusing our teaching tip and workshop series this academic year on the six domains of the rubric, offering ideas and strategies to help instructors meet the essential standards.

The first workshop will focus on Domain 2: Technologies and Tools. Join us for this workshop, where we will explain what Domain 2 is all about, share strategies for how to meet the standard, and connect this domain to joyful teaching practices.

We hope to see you there!

Turnitin Workshop: Clarity Assignments

As part of our move to Turnitin as the plagiarism and AI detection software, COLRS staff is offering a series of trainings to get you started. In this second workshop, we will go over how to add a Turnitin Clarity assignment to your course. Turnitin Clarity is a new assignment type that gives students a space within Canvas to compose work and allows instructors to play back their writing process. It also allows instructors to configure AI assistants for students (or to turn that feature off entirely). This workshop will be recorded in case you are not able to attend.

Turnitin Workshop: Standard Assignments

As part of our move to Turnitin as the plagiarism and AI detection software, COLRS staff is offering a series of trainings to get you started. In this first workshop, we will go over how to add Turnitin to your usual Canvas assignments as well as how to configure Turnitin settings to get the results you're most interested in seeing. This workshop will be recorded in case you are not able to attend.

We hope to see you there!
