Enhancing Instruction at a Distance: Digital Tools for SHASS Teaching; Afternoon "Tasting Sessions" for Orientation Week
Presented by The Programs in Digital Humanities & The MIT Libraries
How might user-friendly digital tools enhance and support SHASS pedagogy this fall? The MIT Programs in the Digital Humanities and the MIT Libraries invite you to join us for a series of four brief "tasting sessions" in which SHASS faculty will present digital tools for helping to make the most of instructional capacities at a distance. These short, pedagogically-oriented talks will focus on SHASS use cases, followed by time for questions and discussion.
We hope you will be able to join the conversation!
