A selection of resources created by ACERT and the Center for Online Learning, organized in a way to help you address specific interests and needs for your courses.
Reflections on an ACERT lunchtime seminar, where students discussed their experiences while learning remote and transitioning back to in-person classes.
We provide links to resources that came out of the faculty working group meetings. In particular, the two faculty leaders of the Active Learning group, Julie Van Peteghem and Jeff Allred, compiled a robust group of resources in folders on a shared Dropbox site.
The COVID crisis has created an “emergency” online teaching situation for faculty. This post contains insights gained by Gina Riley (SOE) in her many years teaching online courses and by Shiao-Chuan Kung (Center for Online Learning) in her many years helping Hunter professors design online courses.
Finding Open Educational Resources (textbooks, courseware, and ancillary materials which can be freely used, reused, and remixed) can be a daunting task. Adding to this frustration is the fact that OERs are as diverse as the disciplines which seek to employ them. There is no “one size fits all” OER. Enter the Hunter Library’s OER office and our showcase OER repository Open Educational Resources (OER): A Libguide. Though digital pedagogy, digital tools, and OER materials represent a paradigm shift in the way education is provided, the library continues to be the faculty’s guide to available resources and information technologies.
Jeff Allred details his adaption of Billy Budd into a Wordpress-based role-playing game and how it engaged his students. His project will also be featured as part of a "digital panel" at the American Studies Association conference in early November.
