Academic Integrity in the Online Classroom: Traditional Practices and New Challenges
Viewpoints Discussion Series
Academic Integrity in the Online Classroom: Traditional Practices and New Challenges
Panelists:
Dr. Shawna Faber, Associate Professor of Teaching, ECPS
Louai Rahal, PhD Student
Moderator:
Meghan McMillen, Learning Designer, ETS
Join us for our second event in the Viewpoints discussion series. This series of events allows faculty, students, and other attendees to join members of ETS in exploring a range of pedagogical issues relating to teaching and learning with technology. The events include a panel of at least one faculty member, one student, and one ETS Learning Designer. The sessions will be collaborative conversations with our panelists and audience members.
This session will focus on academic integrity in the online classroom. In a traditional classroom, student accountability may have been assessed through monitoring in exams, or checking in on student conversations. In the online classroom, this can be complicated – some instructors have opted to use proctoring services, alternative assessments, analytics, or they have reconceptualized what needs to be taken into consideration as student accountability. What are your thoughts on academic integrity in the online learning environment?
Bring your viewpoints to this interactive session! We encourage you to attend and take part in the discussion, or else come simply as a silent spectator and watch the conversation unfold.

Transitioning from Collaborate Ultra to Zoom
UBC has announced that Collaborate Ultra will be discontinued at the end of May 2021. If you have been using Collaborate Ultra for your courses, you will need to migrate to using another web conferencing platform such as Zoom.
This workshop will help you manage this change – you will learn how to integrate Zoom with Canvas and gain familiarity with how Zoom functions in Canvas. We will compare the features of Zoom with Collaborate. You will also learn how to download and preserve any Collaborate Ultra recordings you may need moving forward.
We look forward to helping you as you navigate this change!

Teaching Online: UBC Instructors Share Their Experiences
In this workshop, participants will learn about some essential online teaching practices. We will be integrating the recommendations and suggestions of some of our very own UBC instructors (through the power of video) to help reflect upon our personal challenges and areas of growth in online teaching.
Come and be inspired and set some goals for your online teaching and learning for the upcoming term and beyond.

Viewpoints: Cameras on, Cameras off?
New! Viewpoints Series
Topic: Cameras on, cameras off?
Panelists:
Dr. André Mazawi, Professor, EDST
Olabanji (Banji) Onipede, MA student
Moderator:
Simone Hausknecht, Learning Designer, ETS
Join us for the first event in our new discussion series: Viewpoints. This series of events will allow faculty, students, and other attendees to join members of ETS in exploring a range of pedagogical issues relating to teaching and learning with technology. The event will include a panel of at least one faculty member, one student, and one ETS Learning Designer. The sessions will be collaborative conversations with our panelists and audience members.
Our first event – “Cameras on, cameras off” – explores the issue of whether students, staff, faculty and others should be required to have their cameras on during synchronous sessions, or have the option to turn them off and remain unseen. At first glance, it may appear to be a binary issue, but upon closer inspection we see the complexities when delving into issues such as equity, student engagement, cognitive load, cultural considerations, and connecting to others.
Bring your viewpoints to this interactive session! We encourage you to attend and take part in the discussion, or else come simply as a silent spectator and watch the conversation unfold.

Open Pedagogies, Practices and Resources
This workshop looks at how Open Education can enhance student learning. As educators, some of our values are centred on sharing of knowledge – UBC encourages open scholarship for teaching, learning, and research.
This event will focus on ways to embed open scholarship into your own practice, whether it is the creation of open resources, implementation of existing ones, or creating open assignments where students contribute to global understanding of their topic.

Facilitating Peer Review in Online Classes
Looking for new ways to integrate peer review into your online course assessment practices? Join us and learn about why peer review and peer feedback can impact student learning in online courses.
We’ll examine three phases of the peer review process:
Create – student submissions
Review – peer feedback
Reflect – review and reflect on given feedback
This session will cover the design principles for peer reviewed assignments, as well as an orientation to navigating, building, and grading assessments with peer review.
