TUG (Technology Users Group)
This group meets every month with the exception of August and January. Each 45-minute session focuses on a discussion of current issues that arise when using technology in teaching, a learning session that shares pedagogy tips for distance teaching, or a hands-on opportunity that allows participants to try a new technology tool that has potential to positively affect student retention and success.
For the 2009-2010 academic year, TUG will center on the exploration of teaching strategies in both face-to-face and distance classrooms by having faculty guests sharing classroom strategies and activities with the Harper College Faculty community. This year’s anticipated TUG topics include the following:
• Millennials
• Designing Assignments / Cheating, Plagiarism
• Classroom Assessment Techniques (CATs)
• Building an Online Community for Face-to-Face and Online courses
• Technologies for Creating Interactive Instruction
• Accessibility
• Discussion Strategies
• Lecture Strategies
• Teaching with Cases
• Rubrics as a Grading Tool
You are invited to watch the CII Calendar of Events for the monthly events and to attend the topics that interest you.
