  7. I have found that fewer students are completing #studentcourseevaluations #SETs (which are awfully flawed + not very helpful).

  9. In honor of (American) Thanksgiving this week, here are three quick ideas you might want to consider..
    ✅ Offer students a "clean slate"
    ✅ Friends Without Pens lowers exam anxiety
    ✅ Triage: Focus on where our actions will have impact

    What would be most helpful to you as we head into the final weeks of fall 2022?

  13. I love #Canvas, but really hate the Canvas Inbox. A colleague recommended this strategy for streamlining student emails and keeping communication out of Canvas Inbox - I’m intrigued but definitely not sold. Would love to hear if/how this works for you!
