[Factc] Teaching Research & Writing During the Pandemic

[jwhetham at sbctc.edu]

Calling all faculty members and librarians who help students with research and writing!

Let's Get Together ...
Wednesday, April 22, 2020, from 2 to 3 pm

Why Join Us?
Historically, teaching research and writing went something like this... Instructors held face-to-face check-ins with students during class time, office hours and scheduled meetings to review and provide feedback on their research (e.g. articles, annotations, citations) and writing (e.g. outlines, drafts, bibliographies). During COVID 19, we know many of our students are working remotely as they take care of their families... and we know that our instructors' time is at a premium. So what to do when you can't meet with students in-person and adding another Zoom meeting to your life is overwhelming?

A Webinar for YOU (and your students)
Join us to discuss the challenges of managing student research and writing remotely. We want to hear what challenges instructors and librarians are experiencing across the system as they adapt instructional practices due to COVID-19 closures. This will help inform future professional learning opportunities.

We'll also introduce you to Scrible, an advanced platform that centralizes all student research and writing work online and makes it available to instructors from anywhere, allowing them to access student work remotely for assessment and asynchronous feedback. To help instructors, librarians, and students work on their papers and projects smoothly this quarter, Scrible is offering its service for free until July 1, 2020!
