The final day of Transitioning to Online Teaching offers you a chance to share what you’ve worked on and gain valuable insights and feedback from your peers. This will be divided into Small group presentations/discussions (for the first 40 mins) and afterward, in a large group share-back and wrap up session (for 20 minutes).

The small group component of our synchronous session will take place in groups of 3. We will put you into groups of 3 and provide you with an online link to meet your peers virtually.

Timing Overview (40 mins in your small group):

5 mins: Introduce yourselves; Assign Timekeeper and Group Representative
10 mins: Presenter 1 (5 for sharing/presenting; 5 for feedback/discussion)
10 mins: Presenter 2
10 mins: Presenter 3
5 mins: Discussion and planning for share back: Strategies, Surprises, and Still Unsure

1) When you arrive in your small group session, you have 5 minutes to:

Introduce yourselves briefly (name, faculty, the course you're working on)and
Review your task for the next 50 mins.
Assign roles

Please assign the following 2 roles:

A Time Keeper to keep the session on track so that you can ensure all group participants have a chance to share work and gain insights and feedback from one another.
A Group Representative to report out for the group

2) When introductions are complete, you have 30 minutes for individual presentations and feedback (10 mins per person)

Presenter Instructions:

Each presenter will have 5 minutes for sharing any of the following:

What did you work on this week?
What changes have you made to your course?
What are your next steps?
(Optional): What are you still unsure about or what challenge seems most daunting to you?

Following the five minutes, each presenter will have 5 minutes for hearing general feedback. Peers may wish to offer:

suggestions
questions
resources
strategies that have worked (or not worked) for you
course contents like slides, assessments, or syllabi

3) After presentations are complete, you will have 5 minutes to discuss and plan your group's share-back with everyone

Take these 10 minutes to wrap up any ongoing discussions and to think ahead to the final 30-minute session in which you will join the full group. You will be asked to briefly share with the large group:

Strategy: What are specific useful strategies/changes that your peers have worked on?
Surprise: Was there anything surprising or unexpected about your course transformations?
Still Unsure: What questions or concerns still remain? What are you still unsure about?

You're ready to join the rest of your peers for some wrap up conversation and next steps.
