Hi all!
Jessica Mace (@doctormace) here for my #OAHdebrief2020 keynote thread/Twitter takeover: “Shake up your prompts! Move, make, play”
I’ll kick things off with a little video below.
Here we go! 1/🧵

Ah, the ubiquitous discussion board. It’s a core part of remote teaching, but can feel like a chore.
Plus, students with a full course load may be doing up to 5 of them per week! 😱
So how can we make sure that this is a valuable/engaging learning experience? #OAHdebrief2020 2/

Hi everyone! I’m @lindasteer, Assoc Prof of Art History and Visual Culture in the @miwsfpa at Brock University. It’s great to have the opportunity to present a keynote in such a unique format for @OpenArtHist #OAHdebrief2020 1/

@brocku

Both @brocku and I are in St Catharines, Niagara Region, in Ontario, the traditional lands of the Haudenosaunee and Anishnaabe peoples. The Dish with One Spoon Wampum agreement covers this area and all of us who live here. #OAHdebrief2020 2/

This means that we share this land & ensure the dish is never empty – we take no more than we need – and we use a spoon, not a knife, and keep the peace. I’m a settler and am grateful for the resources and friendship of First Nations, Métis, & Inuit people. #OAHdebrief2020 3/

I’m a big fan of “small teaching” to promote connection, self-explanation and practice in the classroom (Lang 2016).
Collaborative Lego, drawing, or design challenges break routine, build concepts, and let students think through problems in unexpected ways.

Kids learn from play, adults can too!
With big intro courses (90-300 students❗️) the most equitable/accessible outlet for these activities is the discussion board.
So, how to translate this online? How can they engage meaningfully with the content + have fun?#OAHdebrief2020 4/

The formula's simple: set an activity based on your content that gets them to move, make, or play. Then, have them reflect on the process, dissect it/link it to course concepts + discuss with their classmates.
Lots of ways to get creative with this! #OAHdebrief2020 5/
