Hi everyone,
I’m writing to invite you to participate in a free Zoom workshop on using COVE for your teaching, scheduled for 1–3pm Eastern Time on Saturday, July 25. Note that NASSR’s Board just recently decided to pursue creation of a sister site dedicated to Romantic content, logically dubbed CORE: The Central Online Romantic Educator, with all content shared between COVE and CORE. Already now, though, you can use COVE tools for the teaching of any period (as evidenced, for example, by my spring course on Leonardo da Vinci). We also have lots of Romantic content ready for addition to course anthologies.
“Making use of COVE & BRANCH for Teaching and Research” will showcase the use of COVE tools for publication and teaching. Organizers Kenneth Crowell (Auburn), Laura Eidam (Rare Book School), Amy Elliot (U Tampa), and I will show attendees how to make use of COVE’s tools, and we will also have a few early adopters discuss their experience using COVE. This workshop will be the first in a series of events NAVSA is offering this year in lieu of our previously scheduled meeting in Vancouver (now postponed to 2021 because of the coronavirus).
Everyone is welcome to register for this workshop; we can accommodate up to 300 participants. To register, click here by 5 p.m. ET on Thursday, July 23. Registrants should look out for an email reminder the day before the event and Zoom log-in details the day of the event from [log in to unmask] Please send any questions to me or this email address.
Some of the questions we will address in the workshop include:
How can I teach asynchronously?
How can I help students read better?
How can I get all my course texts for $10?
How can I build annotated timelines and maps?
How can I facilitate student research?
How can I build exhibits with students?
How can I keep track of student activity?
How can I link up courses across the world?
How can I upload my own course texts?
How can I support open-access scholarship?
