Free gift to everyone who attends this Live Webinar: Feb 5, 12p. Learning is risky business. We see students hesitate to engage in asking questions or seeking help for fear of perceived risks.
Consider ways of making your course risk-free. Piazza, an online student engagement tool, allows instructors to use anonymity as a strategy to engage students more freely. It offers a risk free space for questions to be answered, and a place for them to assess their learning, all while reducing the number of emails landing in your Inbox.

Join us for this informative session when we invite Clarkson University Assistant Professor Natalie Kurgan to share her experiences using Piazza to engage students in her large enrollment course. Also joining is Piazza representative Caitlin McGarry where she will offer guidance on how to get started with Piazza.
Piazza is a free tool and has a proven record here at Clarkson University and elsewhere – but great potential for wider adoption remains. Come learn techniques for use in your own course and how to get started.
Tune in live to listen and chat with presenters about their findings. Participants are encouraged to bring their own questions along with tips to share.

- Instructors and TAs looking for ways to engage students in STEM and other courses.
