Join us for an engaging workshop designed to empower educators with the expertise to craft, manage, and utilize rubrics within the Canvas Learning Management System (LMS). This practical session aims to transform the grading process, bolster transparency, and elevate the quality of student feedback. Participants will examine diverse rubric formats, create model rubrics, incorporate them into assignments and discussions, and utilize them proficiently for grading purposes.

Enhance your course content with interactive video experiences using SharkMedia (Kaltura) and Annoto. In this hands-on workshop, educators will learn how to embed SharkMedia videos directly into Canvas and transform passive video watching into active learning. Participants will explore how Annoto enables real-time engagement with features like timeline comments, polls, private notes, and interactive quizzes—all within the video player. The session will also cover how to analyze student activity through Annoto’s analytics dashboard, giving you insight into learner participation and video usage.

This interactive workshop introduces faculty to the upgraded Turnitin integration using LTI 1.3 in the Canvas LMS. Learn how to create and manage rubrics within the Turnitin interface, understand the new types of rubrics available, and apply them effectively in online assignments. We’ll explore key benefits of using Turnitin rubrics for consistent and transparent grading, and how the LTI 1.3 update simplifies assignment setup and enhances workflow. Whether you’re new to Turnitin or transitioning from the previous version, this session will help you align assessment with learning outcomes more efficiently.
