SUMMARY:Flex Course Delivery Training (Hands-on Training in Room 3127) Registration Required
DESCRIPTION:Many courses at SSC are considered flex delivery courses.  Flex delivery refers to students choosing to attend a course in-person in a physical classroom or virtually using the virtual classroom option in D2L.  It’s their choice and they can switch up which way they want to attend each week.    \n\n\n\nHowever\, instructors are always in the physical classroom.  That means\, instructors must set up their class to be delivered in both formats.  This includes using the classroom equipment and the virtual classroom tool in D2L for those virtual students.  \n\n\n\nJoin the Teaching and Learning Center for this hands-on training where we will demonstrate the technical aspects of running and managing a flex delivery classroom.    \n\n\n\nIn this live training\, we’ll cover:  \n\n\n\n\nWithin the classroom\, logging into the computer and turning on the front and back projectors. \n\n\n\n\n\nScheduling virtual classroom sessions for all your class times for the term. \n\n\n\n\n\nLaunching a virtual classroom meeting\, selecting the classroom camera and microphone and discovering ways to verify your settings. \n\n\n\n\n\nUsing the camera remote so that virtual students have an equal experience to that of the in-person students.  \n\n\n\n\n\nBest practices of using the virtual classroom tools will also be discussed which include sharing your in-class screen so that virtual students can see clearly\, using the large gallery view so you can see all your virtual students\, recording your meetings so that all students can view later…and much more. \n\n\n\n\nDue to limited seating\, please register by emailing:  ssconline@ssc.edu.  You will receive an email confirmation.   \n\n\n\nThis hands-on training will be held in room 3127.

SUMMARY:Promethean ActivPanel Display Refresher (Hands-on Training in Room 3127) Registration Required
DESCRIPTION:Some SSC classrooms are equipped with a Promethean ActivPanel as a display.    Join the Teaching and Learning Center for this hands-on training where we will demonstrate the technical aspects of using the Promethean ActivPanel in the classroom.    \n\n\n\nIn this live training\, we’ll cover:  \n\n\n\n\nNavigating the center console\, unified menu and touch screen. \n\n\n\n\n\nLocating and launching applications that are pre-installed. \n\n\n\n\n\nAllowing students to share their devices with you and other students by initiating a 6-digit sharing code. \n\n\n\n\n\nUtilizing engaging lessons and activities pre-built into the Promethean ActivPanel that include annotation\, capture app\, spinner\, timer\, whiteboard\, along with access to internet via Chrome\, just to name a few.  \n\n\n\n\n\nSave content altered on the Promethean ActivPanel to USB drive. \n\n\n\n\n\nImport existing resources\, such as PDF’s\, images and Powerpoints and/or connecting to your D2L course to access your course content.  \n\n\n\n\nDue to limited seating\, please register by emailing:  ssconline@ssc.edu.   You will receive an email confirmation.   \n\n\n\nThis hands-on training will be held in room 3127.
