From Our Partners in OIIT – Changes to Faculty Self-Service, Grading and Student Information

April 21, 2024 Adam Cohen

OIIT wanted to make you aware of changes that have recently impacted accessing the Faculty Self-Service pages for Grading, Student Information among other links through an old look and feel. As of April 24th that old interface has been disabled. Since 2019 Faculty Self-Service was upgraded to a new look and feel, with the old version left in place for those who preferred it. However, the vendor is not supporting the old version causing it to not be available. Training materials are available here to help with this transition.

Classic Rewind Series: Starting the Journey to Excellence with a College Faculty Onboarding Program

April 8, 2024 thoeck

The journey to engaged, excellent teaching requires support and preparation for those doing the teaching! In this session, we describe a college Faculty Onboarding Program we developed in 2023 to introduce our new faculty to NSU and provide them with the resources and information needed to succeed in their new role—driven by the belief that effective onboarding will lead to higher job satisfaction, better job performance, greater organizational commitment, and reduction in stress. Informed by feedback from recently hired faculty, we identified support strategies to help new faculty thrive by proactively removing barriers and minimizing guesswork, rather than fixing issues in a reactive fashion.

Classic Rewind Series: That’s Debatable! How to Create Better Writers Using Micro-Debates

March 30, 2024 thoeck

That’s Debatable! is a student-centered approach to academic literacy, discourse, and writing. Using the Claim Evidence Reasoning (CER) Framework, participants will explore a topic by examining a research article, preparing arguments both in support of and opposed to a proposed claim, and engage in academic discourse during the presentation phase by engaging in a micro debate. In this session, I will guide participants through the CER Framework and the micro-debate format. Participants will leave this session with the knowledge and resources required to engage their own students in micro-debates related to the topics currently being pursued in their courses.
