Webinar: Designing Email Challenges for Remote Teaching and Learning

A webinar on 28 March at 13.00 US Central time, which is 19.00 UK time, organised by ACRL ULS PDC: Designing Email Challenges for Remote Teaching and Learning. The speakers are Jen Bonnet, Social Sciences and Humanities Librarian, University of Maine, USA and Senta Sellers, Business Librarian. Miami University, USA.
"Teaching and learning has changed as a result of the pandemic, and many of those changes are here to stay. As many of our institutions continue to embrace more online instruction, e-mail based challenges can provide a flexible way to meet the needs of varied learner populations. In an email challenge activity, participants receive a task each day, for five days, designed to build their skills around the challenge theme, such as advanced research techniques, finding funding, or identifying misinformation on social media. This approach to instruction allows for diverse participation by anyone with an internet connection and an email address regardless of their location, while also providing flexibility for asynchronous education. Whether you or the students you’re teaching are doing their work remotely, an email challenge may be the perfect fit for your library’s educational initiatives."
