Empowering Oxford Educators: Exploring how digital resources for teaching can be used to help students maximise their academic potential

Join us for this in-person workshop to explore how digital resources can be effectively implemented to facilitate and enhance flexible and inclusive teaching and learning practice at Oxford.

During the workshop, we will:

Explore the features of the Centre for Teaching and Learning’s Digitally Supported Inclusive Teaching Toolkit (see www.ctl.ox.ac.uk/digitally-supported-inclusive-teaching-toolkit), and discuss how you might apply them in your teaching

Discuss the Canvas ecosystem of digital tools, including Panopto and ORLO

Discuss Canvas tools for: communication, providing learning materials, encouraging interactivity and creative thinking, and encouraging formative assessment and feedback. Please note this is an overview, and doesn’t include ‘how-to’ activities which are covered in our Canvas Fundamentals online session

Facilitate discussions with fellow attendees and our digital education advisers, and ensure that you know where to find help and support

Develop personal strategies to identify where and how digital tools can benefit you and your students.

We will model the ‘flipped classroom’ approach, by enrolling you in a bespoke Canvas course for ‘before’ and ‘after’ activities, and access to examples such as case studies of existing practice. Throughout the workshop, participants will reflect on their own teaching practice and build an action plan to implement the use of digital tools, where appropriate.
