KSU is fortunate to have a great group of faculty who apply and emulate research practices with online teaching. This conversational workshop opens by briefly highlighting an online/hybrid research-based teaching practice from Boettcher and Conrad (2016) and then hearing from KSU faculty (announced in advance) who have implemented this practice in various ways to effectively engage students virtually. Each workshop will focus on a single practice，with this workshop being Best Practice 2: Create a Supportive Online Course Community. – February 24, 2021

In SoTL and other forms of educational research，we often turn to qualitative data to gain a richer picture of student learning. In this workshop，co-hosted by CETL Scholarly Teaching and the Burruss Institute，we will explore various sources for qualitative data in higher education，including student written assignments，interviews and focus groups，and open-ended surveys. We will also explore thematic analysis (Nowell，et. al，2017) as a useful and easy-to-learn method for approaching qualitative data analysis. – February 22, 2021

A 2018 Gallup poll found that 53% of workers were "not engaged" in work. This means "they may be generally satisfied but are not cognitively and emotionally connected to their work and workplace." What would it look like to borrow ideas from design theory to actively design a work life that leads to thriving and flourishing? Join us for a webinar where we will engage with strategies from Bill Burnett and David Evans book "Designing Your Work Life: How to Thrive and Change and Find Happiness at Work" to reimagine what work might look like for you in 2021. – February 18, 2021

Change has truly been the only constant at KSU for many years. As we lead the change and through the change，it is crucial that we practice Inclusive Change Leadership，affirming a variety of perspectives in a space of positivity and unity. This webinar provides an opportunity to learn more about Inclusive Change Leadership，the how，the what，and the why.
Inclusive Change Leadership is not about silver bullets. Rather，it is a long-term process where we commit to change our mindset and our actions，and be accountable. Nevertheless，there are certain tools that will aide in our ability to actively engage in Inclusive Change Leadership. In this workshop，we will briefly introduce related leadership theories (Adaptive Leadership，Multicultural Organizational Development model). We will then engage in constructive and active conversation about Inclusive Change Leadership. You will leave with a broadened understanding of Inclusive Change Leadership，why it is important and how to enact its tenets in your leadership practice. – February 10, 2021

“The goal [of resilient pedagogy] is to make teaching as disruption-proof as possible,” says Joshua Eyler. Since March of 2020，faculty and students have faced continued uncertainty about the context in which we will be teaching and learning. The pivot from face-to-face instruction in the spring and the rotational，hybrid，and virtual environments many faculty and students have found themselves in this fall have many of us wondering how to best plan for the future. Developing a resilient pedagogy may be the solution. Rather than only planning what content we need to cover，resilient pedagogy focuses on the interactions that facilitate learning and asks faculty to imagine how those interactions will work in any possible learning environment. Join this session to learn more about resilient pedagogy，view models of resilient teaching，and plan how you might apply these strategies to your own teaching. – February 08, 2021

While many of us enjoy our scholarship and creative activity，at times impediments to productivity arise that can prove challenging to overcome. In this workshop we will discuss the research on scholarly and creative productivity to identify barriers and effective practices for overcoming them -- including procrastination，impostor syndrome，shame，questioning relevance or institutional/disciplinary alignment，reinvigorating a stalled research agenda，finding time to do that which feels important but not urgent，responding to negative reviews，and beyond. – February 04, 2021

Research supports the idea that students who feel acknowledged and respected in their learning environment are better able to focus their attention on the course content and activities，and perform on assessments. Strategies to develop an inclusive environment and a warm class climate face-to-face are a helpful starting point，but to create an explicitly centralizing climate in our online classes we must be intentional and deliberate in our inclusion of practices designed specifically for this purpose. In this session，we will review the research on inclusivity in the online classroom，introduce a variety of online activities and virtual communication strategies designed to promote inclusion of all students，and share our experiences in building our own inclusive classroom communities. – February 04, 2021

Active learning has a broad research base supporting its impact on improving student learning (Freeman et al，2014). You might then wonder - how I can I be inclusive in my active learning approach? How can I design active learning experiences that are resilient and adaptable to our ever changing learning environment? In this webinar we will explore what makes certain types of active learning highly flexible，resilient，and inclusive，and we will experience some simple active learning techniques that can be applied in any discipline and in any teaching modality. – February 02, 2021
