Collaborative Sites available through L&S Learning Support Services.
As the pilot program for Collaborative Sites continues to grow, L&S instructors are exploring new ways to foster online interaction in their courses.
This semester, L&S instructors using Collaborative Sites created a wide range of online interactions for their students, including:
- FaceBook-style status updates and media sharing in Italian 102 and ILS 480
- Group blogging and case-study analysis in Communicative Disorders 706
- Peer critique and resource sharing in CommArts 262
- Group-based literary analysis in East Asian 671 and Scandinavian Studies 432
L&S courses using Collaborative Sites will be featured at two upcoming events:
- Introduction to Collaborative Sites for Learning Language, Literature, and Culture - Brown Bag, April 14 at Noon in 254 Van Hise
- Integrating Online Learning in Face-To-Face Classrooms - presentation at the 2010 Teaching and Learning Symposium, May 19 at 10 am. Pyle Center DE232
Collaborative Sites are designed and developed by L&S Learning Support Services for a limited number of L&S instructors each semester.
