Active Teaching Lab: Asynchronous Discussions in Canvas
November 3, 2017 @ 8:30 am - 9:45 am
Event Navigation
Karin Spader shares how to design more productive class conversations. 
There are many ways to structure discussions — threaded, anchored, visual, etc. Hear about the pros and cons of each and learn how Canvas can support them. Bring your laptop or mobile device to get hands-on experience with Canvas tools as a student in our Canvas course. Bring a Sandbox course to work with the tools as an instructor!
Active Teaching Labs are held Fridays from 8:30-9:45am (and every other Thursday from 1-2pm, see events calendar for dates) in room 120, Middleton Building. Check out upcoming labs or read recaps from past labs. To stay informed about upcoming Labs, sign up for regular announcements by sending an email to join-activeteaching@lists.wisc.edu.
