Best Practices for Discussion Boards
Discussion boards can be an effective means of facilitating student participation and peer-to-peer interaction in both online and traditional classrooms. This session will review different types of discussion boards and how discussion boards can fit into the larger course structure. Examples of prompts, instructions, and rubrics will be provided. We will walk through the process of creating a discussion board and managing a discussion in the Canvas Learning Management System (LMS).
A free version of the Canvas LMS, including the discussion board feature, is available for educators. Participants can sign up here if they want to follow along with the demonstration or develop their own practice discussion boards
A More Inclusive Classroom: Considerations for the Legal Research Professor Teaching Neurodivergent Students
This program will provide insights into the strengths neurodivergent students bring into the legal research classroom and the challenges they may face there, as opposed to the doctrinal classroom. This program will also provide possible solutions and best practices that legal research professors can implement in their classrooms to create a welcoming and accommodating learning environment for different types of thinkers, which will not only benefit neurodivergent students but also neurotypical students. Participants will be given time during this program to adjust an in-class assignment and an out-of-class assignment to be better suited for their neurodivergent students
