	Active Learning Online One thing we value the most in Higher Education is the opportunity for students to interact and to benefit from peer and reciprocal teaching. This social constructivist model is at the heart of student-centred education. So how do we achieve these active approaches now that we are physically distanced? The LDCU are offering two workshops addressing this problem: Monday 21st September (12-1pm): Active Learning in Asynchronous environments - this workshop discusses approaches that can be taken using tools such as Moodle, Padlet and other online spaces, where students access the learning materials at different times. We'll explore how task design can facilitate effective active approaches and enable students to learn flexibly, at a time to suit them, but benefit from being in a group. Active Learning in Asychronous online environments presentation. Active Learning in Asychronous online environments recording. Tuesday 22nd September (2-3pm): Active Learning in Synchronous environments - this second workshop looks at ways in which live sessions can facilitate active learning. Principally focused on Teams, but using additional learning apps, we will model and explore activities which support whole and smaller group interaction and engagement. Both sessions are run by Jess Humphreys and Sara Hattersley of the Academic Development Centre, who will share their experiences of delivering their own programmes online this year. Active Learning in Synchronous Online Environments presentation. Active Learning in Synchronous Online Environments recording.
	Monitoring Student Activity and Progress & Collecting Student Feedback in Moodle 25th September, 11-12pm As we move to blended delivery, what tools and methods are available to monitor student progress? How will you know how well students are progressing online? Do you know who might be falling behind? Do you know which activities and resources are proving more popular or effective than others? Do you know what your students think and what their preferences are? This one-hour online workshop will guide you through some of the key reporting features in Moodle that can provide whole-class and individual student activity and progress reports. It will highlight conditional access settings to manage the learning path for students and point out how to restrict access to resources based on activity completion, grade, date and more. It will also briefly introduce you to the Moodle survey tools that can be used to collect regular feedback. This session will be delivered as 80% presentation and demonstration and 20% hands-on workshop with an opportunity to complete some simple tasks and activities. An existing basic knowledge and experience of Moodle will be useful. Monitoring Student Activity and Progress & Collecting Student Feedback in Moodle
