Virtual Faculty Forum April 17th: Faculty Reflections on Teaching in the COVID-19 Era
Dear Faculty Colleagues,
Our very first virtual Faculty Forum will take place this Friday, April 17th at noon via Zoom (For the Zoom link, please contact [email protected]). This month’s topic is “Faculty Reflections on Teaching in the COVID-19 Era.”
Debbie Fetter, Department of Nutrition, has consistently taught online before COVID-19 and as such will share some interesting insights into moving face-to-face courses online quickly. Bwalya Lungu, Food, Science, and Technology, was featured in an AudioBlog entry on teaching with curated video and personal response systems in Winter quarter 2020. Her experience using video and personal response systems effectively can provide helpful insight for faculty as they work to integrate these tools in new ways. Kristin Kiesel, Agricultural and Resource Economics, has presented in various ATS events on teaching with video. Her presentation at the Summer Institute on Teaching and Technology with Bwalya Lungu and Mark Wilson on Teaching with Instructional Video is more relevant than ever.
This first virtual faculty forum will give us the chance to connect with our colleagues from across the disciplines. With an eye towards fostering community as well as sharing insights about remote teaching, I am looking forward to the opportunity to hearing stories about teaching in the COVID-19 era.
Best,
Andy Jones
Academic Associate Director, Academic Technology Services
