Met with Lynn, Karen Hesting, and Nancy Doolittle to discuss a 1 hour, 15 minute presentation for the Summer Critical Thinking Institute, which will most likely be held Friday, June 20. Topics should include RLO’s and online critical thinking activities.
Since it’s likely there will not be Internet connectivity or computers, an off-line activity will be planned. Karen and Nancy will let the rest of the ITs know when they will be working on this presentation. Even though you may not be able to participate on June 20, it is still desired to have as many involved as possible.
Gail and Lynn will introduce the session with instructional strategies, including Nosich’s 35 strategies. They will encourage participants to consider online, as well as face-to-face delivery. Karen and Nancy will provide about an hour overview of technology tools, the RLO checklist and template, and activity to facilitate participants’ ideas about using technology to promote critical thinking.
“Courselets” will be comprised of content and an accompanying activity that someone can complete in about 20 minutes. Lynn will provide the content. Courselet topics: Active Lectures, Teams, Scenarios.
