EDTECH TIP

Why can't I "mute" grades in Canvas anymore? (Or, what do these "eye-cons" mean?)

PROFESSIONAL ENRICHMENT

The Grants Leadership & Development Office is sponsoring a virtual presentation during PDD, Aug. 16, 1 p.m.

Dr. Nicola Sochacka, from the School of Engineering at the University of Georgia, will present “Empowering Students to Have Greater Agency in Online Class Environments.” In April 2020, Dr. Sochacka received a National Science Foundation RAPID grant for her research on how students, faculty, and staff experienced the transition to online learning in the COVID-19 pandemic. Dr. Sochacka’s session will have value for higher education instructors and administrators who found themselves quickly having to adapt to an online environment.
