The Using Adobe Connect in Blackboard session will focus on the Adobe Connect LTI plugin that works directly in your Blackboard course. We will cover how to setup an Adobe Connect Session for your course, how to create an office hours session, and how students can use the building block with each other to study or meet remotely during group project work.

Throughout the semester, the iSchool FCTL will host Quick Hits – 15 minute sessions.  These sessions will be held in HH206F with an 8 people maximum in attendance.  Session time:  12:00 – 12:15 pm

This will be an interactive session to create and design a flipped lesson from start to finish.  What is a flipped lesson plan?  Flipping means you reverse the way you design the learning environment so students engage in activities, apply course concepts and focus on higher-level learning outcomes during class time.  You switch from instructor-centered design to participant-centered design.  You move from being the “sage-on-stage” to being the “guide on the side,” which allows you to create a learning environment that is engaging, motivational and productive.

 Learning goals:

• Describe current definitions and models for the flipped class
• Identify flappable moments in your lesson
• Compare a variety of ideas and strategies for flipping your lesson and assessing student learning

**NOTE: This is a hands-on workshop. Please bring your laptops.
