Facilitated by Dr. Kira Donnell
Spring 2024's CEETL JEDI series will focus on the digital domain. Join us as we discuss innovative ways in which to use technology in the classroom, consider ways in which digital platforms have helped and/or hindered equity and access in education, and explore practices and perspectives that will ensure that we and our students uphold just and equitable digital citizenship in our classrooms, communities, and beyond.
A $50 stipend will be awarded to all Faculty participants for each session.
Sessions will run from 1-2 pm in person in LIB 242
Feb 7 Virtual Citizenship: Building Critical Digital Literacy Skills
Dr. Kira Donnell
In this session, we will consider the impact of our digital presence. We will explore ways in which implicit bias, monetized content, and the digital footprints we leave behind affect the ways in which we navigate the online world. Join in our conversation as we consider how to responsibly and critically utilize online resources for education.
March 20 Journaling in Community: Social Media as a Reflective Teaching Tool
Dr. Jessica Adams-Grigorieff
In this workshop, we will explore how social media like Twitter, TikTok or YouTube can be spaces for self-reflection, pedagogical growth and community. We will explore teaching communities online and practice reflecting by making our own media posts. While the workshop will focus on reflective teaching practice, we will also briefly consider how you might use social media journaling with your students.
