SUMMARY:Teaching Circle: Alternative Grading
DESCRIPTION:Are you interested in learning more about nontraditional grading practices to measure student learning? \nJoin our Teaching Circle as we dive into Grading for Growth\, a book that challenges traditional grading systems and offers practical\, research-backed alternatives.

Come share ideas and discuss how alternative grading can transform your classroom into a space for growth rather than grade-grubbing. \nDates and Times: \n\nJanuary 21\, 11:00-12:00\nFebruary 18\, 11:00-12:00\nMarch 18\, 11:00-12:00\nApril 22\, 11:00-12:00\n\nFacilitated By:\nNathan Hollister and Griff Lewis

SUMMARY:Creating Universally Designed PDF Documents (3/20/26)
DESCRIPTION:Do you have PDF documents in your course that are articles from publishers?   Have you ever scanned pages from a book to make sure students did not need to buy the entire book?  Do you create content in a specialized software program and convert it into a PDF to post in your course?  Have you noticed Canvas telling you that PDF documents in your course have issues with them?  If any of these questions pertain to you\, this workshop is for you.  This workshop will discuss how to create an accessible PDF document from a software program.  It will also outline some of the common challenges of PDF documents and processes to make them more accessible. \nUniversal Design Guideline: Multiple Means of Representation \nPlease register in advance to attend this event\, space is limited:  Registration: Creating Universally Designed PDF Documents
