Join Emily Boles and Pattie Piotrowski, Dean of the Library, to learn about Open Educational Resource grant opportunity through the Illinois State Library and brainstorm proposal ideas.
OER are teaching, learning, and research materials intentionally created and licensed to be free for the end user to own, share, and in most cases, modify. They enable faculty to customize course materials and reduce student costs.
Learn more about the State Library OER grant.
Join COLRS staff to discuss Canvas tools to enhance assessment. We will discuss Canvas Outcomes, Rubrics, and the Learning Mastery view of the gradebook.
If you attended the assessment series presented by Carrie Allen, the UIS Director of Institutional Effectiveness, these tools can help you to collect data on your course or program. Carrie Allen will join us to answer questions and share how her office can assist you in this process.
Does it feel like technology is constantly changing and there is always something new to learn? That's because it is! Finding the time to learn new tools—or learn old tools that we never got around to learning—can be a challenge. That's where our Technology Tips and Tricks Speed Meet can help! Every 15 minutes, we'll introduce/review a different technology that can help you save time, communicate better, collaborate easier, and improve efficiency.
This event is called "Envisioning an Equitable Future: UIS and Beyond" and will run from 9 am-3 pm on Friday, April 26 in the Lincoln Residence Hall (LRH) Great Room. Full-day attendance is welcome but not required. Morning and afternoon coffee/tea will be provided as well as lunch for registered attendees. All members of the UIS community (students, staff, faculty, and administrators) are encouraged to attend this campus-wide conference centering our collective efforts toward an equitable future.
