Loyola Summer Teaching Conference
The 2020 virtual Loyola teaching conference is meant to focus on two large issues that immediately affect faculty teaching Fall courses. First, we will center our discussions on pedagogical issues including remote versus online teaching, Jesuit values in the online classroom, re-thinking SLOs and new modes for assessing student learning, and also thinking through student success. Second, we will focus on the nuts and bolts of teaching in Canvas, including other technologies for teaching that may be integrated such as Podcasts, in-video quizzes, and G-Suite collaborations. Strategically, we want to take Loyola into a new period of creatively designed courses that meet the needs of University and course-level goals. There will be opportunities for discussion with colleagues, including colleagues who have used our Canvas at other institutions and those with great experience teaching online courses.
This June training should not be the end of our discussions related to pedagogy and course creation. We ask that these discussions continue at the college-level and integrate best practices within the disciplines. As such, we have faculty experts in each college who have volunteered to keep dialogue open and also think through issues at the college-level.
