Co-created with a cohort of thoughtful students who served as student pedagogical partner fellows at TIIP in Fall 2025\, this resource includes frameworks to design effective student-centered syllabi that can serve as learning tools for students. The resource includes not only traditional syllabi but also graphic and video-based forms and practical guidance for how and why those types of versions may also be used.   \nAt the launch session we will give an overview of the resource\, describe how it was co-created\, and highlight various syllabus types just in time for the spring semester. We will also announce a special competition\, The Syllabus Challenge\, to highlight and recognize instructors at Rutgers-New Brunswick who reimagine their syllabi using the Syllabus Resource Library resources.   \nREGISTER  URL:https://teaching.rutgers.edu/event/launch-session-the-syllabus-resource-library-online/ LOCATION:Zoom CATEGORIES:Workshop ORGANIZER;CN="Institute for Teaching%2C Innovation%2C &%3B Inclusive Pedagogy":MAILTO:TeachingInstitute@rutgers.edu END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=UTC:20260113T120000 DTEND;TZID=UTC:20260113T130000 DTSTAMP:20260420T190013 CREATED:20251209T220109Z LAST-MODIFIED:20251209T223534Z UID:3598-1768305600-1768309200@teaching.rutgers.edu SUMMARY:The AI Card Deck: Designing with Generative AI in Mind DESCRIPTION:Looking to reimagine your teaching in the age of AI\, but not sure where to start? This hands-on session using the Analog Inspiration Card Deck encourages a more “human-centered” approach to AI.

Then join us! In this interactive session\, you will learn about how to create a productive\, collaborative relationship with your TAs by discussing practical strategies for clear communication\, defined roles and expectations\, and intentional mentorship and guidance.  \nUsing a simple before-during-after framework\, the session will highlight what you can do at each stage of a semester to maintain a strong working partnership with TAs. You will leave with concrete approaches you can implement in your own course context.  \nAudience: Administrative staff\, lecturers\, teaching faculty (NTT)\, tenure-line faculty\, postdocs (register through the link below or under “Website” at the bottom of this page) \nREGISTER  URL:https://teaching.rutgers.edu/event/building-an-effective-partnership-with-tas/ LOCATION:Zoom CATEGORIES:Workshop ORGANIZER;CN="Institute for Teaching%2C Innovation%2C &%3B Inclusive Pedagogy":MAILTO:TeachingInstitute@rutgers.edu END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=UTC:20260120T140000 DTEND;TZID=UTC:20260120T150000 DTSTAMP:20260420T190013 CREATED:20260120T202403Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260120T202403Z UID:3796-1768917600-1768921200@teaching.rutgers.edu SUMMARY:How to Use Accessibility Checkers and Update Course Materials DESCRIPTION:Facilitators:   \n\nOmar Samkough\, Instructional Technologist\nNatalia Kouraeva\, Senior Instructional Designer\n\nThis workshop will provide an overview of the primary accessibility tools available in the Rutgers instance of Canvas – TidyUp and Ally Accessibility Report. Come meet the experts from the UOES team who will demonstrate how to resolve some accessibility issues and update course materials. This session fulfills the requirement for the Teaching with Technology certificate program for graduate students and postdocs.  \nAudience: Administrative staff\, lecturers\, teaching faculty (NTT)\, tenure-line faculty\, graduate students and/or postdocs (register through the link below or under “Website” at the bottom of this page)  \nREGISTER  URL:https://teaching.rutgers.edu/event/how-to-use-accessibility-checkers-and-update-course-materials/ LOCATION:Zoom CATEGORIES:Workshop END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=UTC:20260123T110000 DTEND;TZID=UTC:20260123T123000 DTSTAMP:20260420T190013 CREATED:20251110T202329Z LAST-MODIFIED:20251117T194523Z UID:3488-1769166000-1769171400@teaching.rutgers.edu SUMMARY:AI as Accessibility Improvement Tool DESCRIPTION:How can we ensure your course images are accessible to all learners without spending hours writing descriptions? This interactive session dives into that question by showing how generative AI can serve as an assistant for creating high-quality alt-text. We’ll focus on a practical\, human-centered workflow: using AI to generate a first draft and then applying your expertise to refine it for accuracy and context. You’ll take part in hands-on activities\, using readily available AI tools to generate and evaluate alt-text in real time. Whether you’re new to digital accessibility or looking to streamline your workflow\, this session aims to provide practical skills and a fresh perspective on creating inclusive course materials. To get the most out of this session\, come with a course and images in mind (or on your device) that you’d like to make more accessible. \nREGISTER HERE URL:https://teaching.rutgers.edu/event/ai-as-accessibility-improvement-tool/ LOCATION:Zoom CATEGORIES:Learning Community END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
