TFSC to Host Academic Integrity Webinar

The Wally Cordes Teaching Faculty and Support Center will host a webinar on academic integrity and remote teaching at 11 a.m. Wednesday, April 29.

Chris Bryson, executive director of academic initiatives and integrity, will be joined by two members of the Teaching Innovation and Pedagogical Support team: Dr. Kathryn Zawisza, director of academic technology for IT Services, and Shelly Walters, associate director of instructional design and support services for Global Campus, to discuss emerging trends in these areas since the transition to remote learning environments occurred earlier this semester.

The discussion will take place live via Blackboard Collaborate Ultra on the TFSC Blackboard Community Course. For faculty wishing to participate who aren't a member of the TFSC community on Blackboard, email TFSC@uark.edu to be added a member. Once added, "Wally Cordes Teaching and Faculty Support Center" will show up as a "non-credit course" when you log into Blackboard. The webinar will be available by clicking the "Virtual Meeting" Link in the left menu.

For questions, contact Zawisza at kzawisza@uark.edu.
