In this new series from the Online Education team at the Center for Integrated Professional Development, Maker Days are a space where instructors can work independently and collaboratively to discuss topics related to teaching and develop artifacts that can be used in their courses. Staff will be available throughout to answer questions, brainstorm, and guide the session with brief lectures on specific, timely subjects. Each Maker Day will focus on a chosen theme with three subtopics that guide and focus the artifacts that you may choose to work on. While we encourage you to come for the entire 3 hours, you may also drop in as interested. Bring a laptop and course materials you’d like to work on!Maker Day: Let’s Class Prep focuses on getting your course prepped for the upcoming semester. The first hour will focus on crafting course goals that promote student wellness and wellbeing. The second hour will focus on best practices for building modules to scaffold and chunk content. The final hour will focus on creating equitable and accessible assignments. Artifacts that can be drafted during this Maker Day include: syllabus policies, assignment sheets, modules maps, welcome announcements, grading policies, etc. Registration is required.
