EXCEL and Moodle workshops: Back by Popular Demand!

[John Locke]

The LITS Technology Enhanced Learning unit is pleased to offer a series of

Led by Excel expert, Dr. Thomas Burl, these Excel workshops will take place
in January.

   registration information.

*Also offered in January:*

*Moodle: Teaching With Moodle (Online - 5 Days, January 10-14)*

   - Facilitated jointly by John Locke and Peter Friesen
   - Covers everything necessary to design and manage a fully online,
   asynchronous course using Moodle, our learning management system.

*As the situation becomes less certain with respect to the impact COVID may
have on our plans this Spring, when designing course content for the
upcoming semester, TEL suggests that we hope for the best, but plan for the
worst. That means Zoom alternatives at the ready, assignment drop boxes in
place, instructions clearly documented as though we’re teaching on line…
most of us know the drill by now. It’s easier to build it and not need it
than to not and wish we had. *

*For new faculty and those who were not able to attend our intense Teaching
with Moodle workshops in the summer of 2020, please consider attending
our Moodle: Teaching With Moodle workshop. This online workshop covers all
aspects of teaching in Moodle over a period of five consecutive days. Three
hours each day will be spent in Zoom sessions covering the tools available
to you in the Moodle system, and an estimated four hours each day will be
spent in Moodle itself, completing readings, watching videos, completing
written assignments, and participating in forums. Following the successful
completion of the workshop, attendees will be certified to teach fully
online and remote courses at SUNY Plattsburgh.*

*Note: The Zoom sessions will run from 9:00am through 12:15 each day.
Workshop runs from Monday, January 10, 2022 9:00 AM to Friday, January 14,
2022. Access to the corresponding Moodle page and invitations to Zoom
sessions will be delivered via email before 9AM on January 10. Please
