Induction Workshop Details

Overview

Following the experience of adopting online teaching to ensure student learning quality in the last semester during the suspension of face-to-face classes, colleagues come to realize the importance of shifting their teaching practices from emphasizing summative assessment to formative assessment with the digital technology support. To better prepare colleagues for online teaching with the design of alternative assessment methods for the new semester, a series of workshops will be delivered to familiar colleagues with different types of e-tools and alternative assessment methods. Different means of digital technology facilitating student learning will be introduced.
