SUMMARY:Wikipedia & Open Pedagogy
DESCRIPTION:For decades Wikipedia was stigmatized because of its self-governed and open approach to content creation and revision. After 25 years since its launch\, Wikipedia has offered a unique opportunity for students in open pedagogical environments. This Brock University session will address the incorporation of Wikipedia assignments into post-secondary courses\, popular initiatives that might appeal to instructors and students\, and important considerations for instructors who are contemplating incorporating Wikipedia into their course design. Hosted by a Wikipedian/Librarian who brings 10 years of experience editing\, teaching\, and researching Wikipedia\, participants will leave this session with an understanding of what is required to build Wikipedia into an existing or new course\, what they can expect from students\, and what students can expect to learn. \nThis Workshop will be lead by Denise Smith\, Head\, Research Lifecycle\, Brock Library

SUMMARY:From H5P to LMS: Boosting Active Learning and Assessment
DESCRIPTION:Participants in this Brock University workshop will learn a step-by-step process to boost student engagement through “low-stakes” interactive assessments by learning how to embed\, update\, and manage H5P content using freely available tools like Lumi. Leave the “technical headache” behind and take full creative control of your digital classroom by integrating H5P activities into your LMS. Note: This workshop is specifically designed for educators whose LMS does not have a built-in H5P integration. \nThis workshop will be lead by Vanja Stojanovic\, Learning Strategies Librarian at Brock Library.
