Hello York colleagues! My name is Casandra Silva Sibilin and I’ve been lecturer at York, Department of History, Philosophy, and Anthropology after several years now, following ten years as an adjunct lecturer. My preferred pronouns are she/her/hers.
I first learned about the Commons last year through a Baruch open-source digital tools workshop and experimented with setting up sites, but I’m at a very early stage. I thought of it more as a site for displaying information and hadn’t thought about it as a place for more interactive discussions like this. So far I’ve displayed some student work on Commons but would like to help students navigate it on their own and possibly use for online discussions and also help them set up their own groups & pages.
Here are my Common sites as of now if anyone’s curious 🙂
