The CTL Presents: "HTML: Made Easy"
View in full page
  • When:
    February 28, 2013 9:55am
Date/Time: 
February 28, 2013 - 9:55am
Where: 
North Campus, Room D225J

Time: 9:55 a.m. - 10:45 a.m.

Tweaking and updating one’s Blackboard site occasionally requires faculty to “go behind-the-scenes” and build new content using an HTML editor. However, using the HTML editor does not always produce the desired results.

This workshop is meant for those faculty members who want to learn some of the basics of HTML coding. This introductory workshop will examine how HTML coding can help you organize your course structure and participants will learn about writing reusable and easy to customize content as well as useful tools that can enhance your Blackboard course site.

The CTL Presents: "Webinar - Three Generations, One Classroom: Using Generational Theory to Understand & Motivate Your Students
View in full page
  • When:
    February 27, 2013 2:45pm
Date/Time: 
February 27, 2013 - 2:45pm
Where: 
North Campus, Room D236

Today’s college classroom is not filled exclusively with traditional-age students. Instead, instructors are likely to encounter traditional, adult, and returning students spanning an age range from 17 to 67 years of age. To effectively reach the three main generations you might
encounter – Baby Boom, GenX, and Millennial – you must understand who they are, how their generation shaped their motivations and expectations, and how to use this knowledge to communicate class material.

Participants will learn basic generational theory and how it applies to teaching the most common generations in the classroom. They will also explore ways to motivate each generation, taking into account the specific challenges and distractions that each group will most likely exhibit.

Participants must view the webinar in North Campus, Room D236

Facilitator: Jennifer Patterson Lorenzetti is an experienced writer, speaker, and consultant specializing in higher education, marketing research, and marketing copywriting. As a seasoned higher education administrator and veteran writer, she is passionate about helping colleges serve students more effectively.
