Thanks to ReggieNet’s spring break tune-up, teachers on campus have new tools to help engage students online.
The Center for Teaching, Learning, and Technology will offer additional ReggieNet training workshops in April to help faculty get comfortable with these new options. ReggieNet workshops are taught in computer labs, so seating is limited, and registration is required. Simply click on a date/time below to jump directly to the My.IllinoisState.edu registration portal.
ReggieNet – Assessments
2–4 p.m. Wednesday, April 9
1–3 p.m. Friday, April 25
This workshop offers an in-depth exploration of the assessment tools available in ReggieNet, including Tests & Quizzes, Assignments, and File Drop. Learn the options available for different types of assessment, the limitations of the assessment tools, and instructional strategies for promoting academic integrity.
ReggieNet – Lesson Builder
1–3 p.m. Friday, April 11
2–4 p.m. Wednesday, April 16
Discover how to easily create online instructional modules using Lesson Builder. This powerful tool allows you to integrate resources from across your ReggieNet site (Tests & Quizzes, Assignments, Discussion & Discussion Forums) into online lessons. Design lessons that require students to complete goals before they can proceed to the next stage. You will also learn how to integrate multimedia content. This course will also briefly discuss organizing content in other ReggieNet features, such as the Resources and Materials and Web Content tools.
Note: ReggieNet’s new Lesson Builder tool is different than the SoftChalk Lesson Builder, also supported by CTLT. People who have taken SoftChalk training should consider taking this ReggieNet course, too.
ReggieNet – Discussions
1–3 p.m. Friday, April 4
2–4 p.m. Wednesday, April 23
Maximize your ability to communicate with students through ReggieNet. This course focuses on features recently added to the Discussion tool. Learn how to have ReggieNet automatically create discussion groups. You’ll also see how to grade discussions by forum, topic or message. This workshop will also highlight features in Email, Course Mail and other communication tools. Decide which tools fit your particular communication needs.
