Stay Healthy During Hot Weather

Take some simple steps to beat the heat this summer and keep yourself, your family, your neighbors, and your pets healthy! Remember to drink plenty of water, wear lightweight, light-colored, and loose-fitting clothing, and avoid outside activities during the hottest part of the day, which is from 3:00 to 6:00 pm. Cooling down for a few hours daily will allow your body to recover and tolerate the heat better for the rest of the day.

Summer Grad Petition Deadline

An Introduction to Contract Grading

📅 Tuesday, July 1 | 11:00 to 11:30 am - Online

Contract grading aims to redirect students’ attention from points and grades to self-reflection, thoughtful effort, and a respect for the learning process.

With a well-designed grading contract, you’ll no longer hear questions like:

• “What grade do I need on the final in order to pass the course?”
• “Do you have any extra credit opportunities?”

This session will provide an overview of grading contracts and how you might implement them in a learning-centered Canvas course.

Using Canvas Quizzes for Low-Stakes Assignments

📅 Wednesday, July 2 | 11:00 to 11:30 am - Online

This session will cover some of the more advanced settings and tools available for instructors to build quizzes. Many of those features are only available in the Quiz tool, so we will also look at how to rethink worksheets or activities as quizzes in order to better evaluate student learning and inform our teaching.
