Teaching Tips

Making Canvas content accessible

Did you know that there are lots of ways to make content such as text, images, and videos in Canvas accessbile to people with disabilities? This helpful page from Santa Rosa Junior College offers tips on how to add image descriptions to images, adjust color contrast, use headings, and create hyperlink text.

Call for Proposals

Digital Education Days 2023

The Digital Education Days virtual conference will be held on three days in February 2023: Friday the 10th, Wednesday the 15th, and Tuesday the 21st. This year the conference is loosely organized around the theme Rising and Revising: Rethinking the Future of Digital Education; we would welcome proposals even if they don’t fit the theme firmly. The conference brings together faculty from UM-Dearborn, UM-Flint, Henry Ford College, and for the first time Mott Community College to share best practices and explore new opportunities that enhance teaching and learning in the digital realm.

If you have a great idea or strategy around digital pedagogy, we would love to have you present at the conference. Each session will be scheduled for 45 minutes, which may include direct presentation, panel discussion (where applicable), interactive workshops and time for Q&A. The call for presentation proposals is now open, and proposals are due by the end of the day on Friday, December 2, 2022.

Thank you in advance for your consideration!
