Next Week @ CETL: D2L Accessibility, Online Course Delivery Lab, & Your Students’ Work Deserves to be Shared

D2L Accessibility

Tues., Nov. 1 |  12:30-1:30 pm, Zoom  |  Facilitator: Rachel Rupprecht

D2L courses are accessible when people with all kinds of disabilities can perceive, understand, navigate, and interact with them. Join us for tips on how to address common barriers to accessibility for D2L course content.


Course Delivery Lab: Online Learning

Regular Substantive Interaction Dashboard

RSI Dashboard SUNY Empire State College

Asynchronous D2L work: Tues., Nov 1 – Fri., Nov 4 |  Facilitator: Josie Baudier

Synchronous Wrap-up Meeting: Fri., Nov 4, 12:00-12:30 pm

CETL labs facilitate asynchronous hands-on engagement with pedagogical professional development over a four-day period in preparation for a culminating synchronous meeting. Participants in this mini lab should expect to work independently for 4 hours to complete the asynchronous lab components and meet for 30 minutes virtually to wrap up the lab together. The objectives of this lab are to:

  • Create a facilitation plan to support presence, time mgmt., feedback
  • Describe ways to promote student engagement in online courses
  • Identify and plan for regular and substantive interactions (DOE, 2021)
  • Utilize technology tools in the workshop that will add to your online instruction
