Learn how to mine your industry contacts for engaging cases you can use as teaching tools to get students to apply their learning to real-world problems. This workshop will walk you through the process of writing your first case, from selecting an appropriate contact to conducting the interview(s) and shaping the narrative of the case to fit particular learning objectives. We will also prepare the case for publication with a teaching note.

In order to complete the workshop, participants must have a contact they want to interview during the week of the workshop.

Participants are required to have previous experience teaching or learning with cases, either through classroom experience or workshops on teaching cases.  For more information, please contact the Centre for Teaching and Learning at ext. 5040. 


 

 

The CTL Presents: "Tech Talk: The Social Media Classroom"
View in full page
  • When:
    June 10, 2014 6:05pm
Date/Time: 
June 10, 2014 - 6:05pm
Where: 
North Campus, Room D225J (Lab)

Time: 6:05 p.m. - 7 p.m.

Active dialogue. Faculty continuously desire and attempt to create moments of active dialogue with their students. Within the classroom, that task can be easily achieved, but what about outside of the classroom? Why should the discussion end once the students leave the classroom? Social media tools can help in promoting and continuing the classroom discussion online, using highly accessible, creative, web 2.0 tools such as LinkedIn, Twitter, and Wordpress.


Join this workshop to learn more about how social media can help keep the active dialogue going outside of the classroom.

Group projects are always a challenge. If group members are in different locations, collaboration becomes an even bigger problem. Does multiple people editing the same document, multi-versions of the same document, “good revisions” overwritten by accident ….. sound familiar?

Join this workshop and discover how to take the challenge out of group projects using Github, Bitbucket, and Git. Solve team collaboration problems quickly; such as, multiple members editing the same document resulting in multi-versions.
