Faculty Events

Dear Faculty Colleagues,

During our long stretch of remote teaching, we have tried a number of tools and strategies to continue to teach inspiring and transformational classes. Some of us have recorded our lectures and posted them using AggieVideo, and most of us have depended upon Zoom for synchronous lessons. But no matter what strategies we have used to connect with students or augment our captured lectures, all of us continue to depend upon UC Davis Canvas, our learning management system, to teach effectively at UC Davis.

Dear Faculty Colleagues,

Thanks to all of you who attended our November 5th special DOLCE (Discussing Online Learning and Collaborative Education) on technology affordances and challenges when assessing our students. Find the recording of the event here.

Dear Faculty Colleagues,

All of us are masked in the classroom this fall, and some of us are using microphones to compensate for the potential muffling, breathing, and projection challenges that accompany masks. For this month’s October 15 (at noon) Faculty Forum, titled “Of Mics and Masks,” we will discuss primarily audio challenges that come with teaching while masked, teaching while capturing content, and teaching while some students are joining classes both remotely and synchronously.

We anticipate addressing the following questions:
