Engaging Students Online: Small Ideas, Big Impact (2020)

The annual Fall Forum on Teaching and Learning typically kicks off the academic year with an event focused on pedagogy, complementing the Teaching and Learning Conference in the spring. This year, event organizers chose to delay the event until Winter Intersession and use the time to give participants a chance to reflect on lessons learned after the rapid switch to online teaching in spring.

This year’s event will focus on Small Ideas for Big Learning. Participants will hear from fellow faculty who have implemented a variety of strategies to address new pedagogical challenges. After each panelist introduces themselves and their strategy, participants will have the opportunity to ask questions and learn more in breakout sessions.

After attending this forum, participants will be able to:

• Discuss strategies for adapting curriculum, pedagogy, or community-building activities for online environments
• Identify ways to use DePaul technology tools to facilitate teaching and learning
• Locate resources for implementing new teaching and learning strategies and using DePaul technology tools
