Learn about this very helpful AI tool from Google.

This is the full version of the presentation I gave to the CTE committee on 03-11-2025.

AI is here, like it or not. Best practice: Have a specifically stated AI policy for your course, in the syllabus and in Canvas. Your policy can be completely restrictive, completely permissive, or somewhere in between. But it is important to let your students know how (and if) they should be using AI in your class. Some resources to get you started are attached.

For all my classes I request weekly self-evaluation and feedback from my students. I ask them to let me know which sections they have completed, what strategies they have for the upcoming week, how was their learning experience, and any other thoughts they want to share with me regarding their studies.

A new section was added to the Perkins application to focus on Anti-racism, Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Accommodations.

# data[].attributes.body
In all my classes, at the end of each module (week), students are required to submit a self-evaluation and feedback summary. I ask them three questions: What did you learn?, What are your learning strategies and plans for the upcoming week?, how do you describe your experience with the module completed (average, exciting, frustrating, easy, etc.)?.

I have begun using Pronto, the chat tool built into Canvas, for all my online courses. It's really easy to use, and a great way to connect with your students and to connect them with each other.
For more info on how to use Pronto, try this link: https://support.pronto.io/en/articles/2870317-general-pronto-overview
Pronto is built into Canvas, but if students like it, they can also download the mobile app: https://support.pronto.io/en/articles/2775181-signing-in-to-pronto

Our department began a enrollment campaign that helped us steer away from cancelling classes for the spring term.
1. We asked dept. faculty to mass e-mail former students using people soft, to remind them to register for open classes.  2.  We held several department  zoom info sessions during January to attract students and answer questions regarding classes, certificates and degrees.

I give a few extra credit points for students who fill out the CTE Survey. They submit a screenshot in Canvas of their form completed screen, or of the To Do List without the CTE Survey on it.

In addition to asking for some basic info, I like to add a fun activity. One of my favorites is "Two Truths, One Lie" which asks students to tell two things about themselves that are true, and one that is a lie. Students usually have fun guessing each other's truths and lies. The goal is to foster some interaction, and to allow students to get some confidence by getting a few easy points.
