[Factc] COVID-19 planning

[Jim Drinkwine]

The communities of practice may be a good idea! It just takes one person at one school to have a gem of an idea that could help the entire system.

We're starting a week late so we have time to convert to online. Though, I don't think folks realize that one week isn't going to be enough time to move a fully face-to-face class online in any successful way. The labs are going to be a challenge that those disciplines are starting to talk about here.

Regards,
Jim

Thanks, Jim! This is a great question.
One thing we are kicking around ... what if we had system-level "Work alike" groups of faculty who could learn together around this sort of burning issue/question? They could meet via Zoom and also have a listserv or a Canvas shell.
So for example, we could have a "work-alike" fully online system-level CoP for faculty who teach CHEM&123 ... and they could be facilitated through an inquiry process to create new ways to handle this adaptive challenge of teaching labs online.
Does that make sense?

"The problems of racism in writing classrooms are not primarily pedagogical problems to solve alone. Racism is an assessment problem, which can only be fully solved by changing the system of assessment, by changing the classroom writing assessment ecology. Thus assessment must be reconceived as an antiracist ecology."

Hi everyone,



Just checking to see what's happening on other campuses. Whatcom is finishing this quarter online and moving all classes next quarter online. Current concern centers around lab classes online. Have any of you heard of possible solutions for this?



Thanks,

Jim
