Time: 2:30 p.m. - 3:20 p.m.

Sometimes, despite your best efforts to ensure that your classroom runs smoothly, there are times when you feel like pandemonium is about to erupt. This workshop will answer your questions and provide workable, easy to implement recommendations to help manage all classroom situations.

Time: 10:50 a.m. - 11:40 a.m.

This workshop offers you the opportunity to explore a different way of testing students. Group testing (testing in pairs) is a technique to help
students move from memorization to learning the material and discussing the best solution in a given situation. Discover some test-taking options that reduce anxiety while increasing critical thought and collaboration.

Facilitator: Nicole Chuchmach, Professor,
School of Hospitality, Recreation and Tourism

Time:  2:30 p.m. - 3:20 p.m.

Building assessments into Blackboard can become rather time consuming, but there is a workaround! Humber is proud to provide faculty with a campus-wide license for Respondus. Fully compatible with Blackboard, Respondus is a premiere exam authoring tool that allows faculty to preview questions before publishing them to the LMS, publish assessments directly to Blackboard, create single exams or exam pools, as well as print exams and save files to MS Word.

More often than not, we feel overwhelmed with too much to do, deadlines to meet and it all becomes very stressful. This seminar, presented by Humber’s Counseling and Health Centre staff, will explore what stress is, it's physiological and psychological impact, and its role in mental illness; we will also look more specifically at workplace stress. Tools for self-care, stress management, and supporting others will be discussed and demonstrated. A brief overview of Mental Health First Aid will be provided at the end of the session. This session ends at 4 p.m.
