For Faculty: COVID-19 Instructional Continuity in Spring 2020
This guide is a copy of the original Instructional Continuity Guide used during the move to remote teaching in Spring 2020 due to COVID-19. It exists to retain and share this collection of resources for anyone who needs them.
Create a Canvas Discussion that allows your students to respond to a prompt or to one another. You can have students post their work to receive feedback from peers.
Enrich your lesson plans and open up new ways for your students to collaborate with tips, tricks, and resources for Jamboard (the whiteboard included with Google Drive).
Use Padlet as a digital bulletin board: students can add short text responses and images, and they can comment on each other's posts. This is a great way to get responses to a particular question, and a fun way virtually check in with students and see how they're doing.
Google Docs' Suggestion mode, like Microsoft's Track Changes, allows viewers to make suggestions and edits, as well as add comments, to a piece of writing: you can encourage your students to use it to virtually edit each other's work.
You can use Canvas's Peer Review Assignment feature to allow students to give feedback to one another on their submissions. Peer reviews can be assigned automatically by Canvas, and can be anonymous.
