UD instructors (faculty, teaching support staff, adjunct faculty, and graduate TAs) can now register for Keep Calm & Teach On (KCTO)–a workshop series with hands-on, virtual, and in-person sessions designed to get you into the classroom with confidence. Running virtually from August 17 to 19 with in-person sessions on August 22, 24, and 25, there are plenty of opportunities to find the support you need to get you and your course off to a great start! 

Virtual Sessions

Virtual sessions will cover tools like Canvas Gradebook, FeedbackFruits, and Poll Everywhere; topics like gamification, think-pair-share, and multimedia assignments; and tips for integrating the First Year Common Reader into coursework. You only need to register once to attend any of the 18 virtual workshops through Zoom Events and connect with your colleagues and support staff in a virtual “lobby” between sessions. Virtual session schedule.

Classroom Orientations (in-person)

This year, the in-person Classroom Orientation sessions will give you a chance to get hands-on experience with new technology in UD Capture + Zoom classrooms and existing UD Capture Classic classrooms. These sessions will familiarize you with this new technology before the first day of classes. Light refreshments will be provided during these sessions. Classroom orientation schedule.

KCTO Social: Connect with Your Colleagues (in-person)

On August 25 you are invited to socialize with your teaching support staff at the KCTO Social. Library liaisons, instructional designers, and others from the Faculty Commons partnership will be on-hand to answer questions, chat about courses, and share how they provide you with instructional support throughout the year. Refreshments will be provided at this event. KCTO social schedule.
