Are you flooded with emails from confused students? Is your weekly marking unmanageable? Take action sooner rather than later. Consider sharing your successes on our blog. Have you noticed your students are contributing to discussions more than in face-to-face classes? Are cuLearn quizzes saving you time and energy? Get feedback from your students or do a self-scan to help you pinpoint what’s working (or not) so you know what to keep and what to toss. And remember to keep recorded lectures short! If your course outline allows for it, make your assessments more flexible (e.g., “best of” structure). Are you assigning multiple hours of lectures, dozens of pages of readings, and multiple assessments every week? Be realistic about your course workload. An empty “catch-up” class at the end of the semester might give everybody some much-needed breathing room.

Are you struggling to keep up? If your course is feeling overwhelming, try to cut down/out any content or ungraded activities that don’t contribute to your learning outcomes.

We’re still here-here to talk, here to listen, here to help you sort out issues, here to help you bring your teaching to the next level. It’s us again, your Teaching and Learning Services team.
