I have had the opportunity to hear about a wide variety of innovative practices going on during this term.
Joe Reinig says they are providing talks by experts in the field for students in the STEM disciplines: Coming soon--a biologist who did her dissertation on Moose (or Elk?)
Aggie Ramos-Doyle is using conversation bots to engage second language learners.
Cynthia Zyzda and colleagues are offering block style courses in the gt pathway art courses and Western Civ (Hope I got that right). The transfer between like content during the same semester enriches the student engagement in both courses.
Roy Brandt's web-design students are discussing their projects in a lively fashion with their preferred space: Facebook.
Bruce Kime and student Kodiak Drewery produced an outdoor orientation film:

Gywn Ebie has incorporated pbwiki into the EDU222: Effective Teaching course.
Without a doubt, there's even more going on out there.
Would you share yours with CMC colleagues? Thanks!
