Perfect! Thank you, Sara. It works now😀 Have a nice long weekend!

Hello Sara and Aankit! I am trying to fill in the summer camps preference form but I only see ten names in the drop down menu. I type my name but still no show 🤷‍♂️. Any hint? Thank you!

I liked the storytelling format of the resource. I find it makes more attractive teachers and students experiences as they come together much better than from a list of tech use pros and cons.

I think that all, or at least many, resources or tech tools may be disempowering or empowering, depending on how and when they are used. For example,…[Read more]

There is lot to digest here about equitable CITE pedagogies! I like that the goals include different dimensions from the personal to the institutional, and consider the experience through the process (e.g., joy, meaning, well-being). I found the selected “moves” useful as a framework to keep in mind when designing a course, an activity, a cur…[Read more]

I select the first one because oppression is embedded in many aspects of every day’s life but often is not obvious; the second one complements the…[Read more]

The other two are #5…[Read more]

Hi, I’m Carlos, and I’m a Lecturer at the Bio Department. I gave a try to the Commons to house a course site, and then I decided to use ePortfolio, but this was yeeeears ago. I’m excited to see how much it has grown its capabilities! I’ve checked Flipgrid out before but never used it. I used Padlet for broadcasting content, and used it for…[Read more]
