This workshop introduces the Transparency in Learning and Teaching (TILT) framework as a tool for designing clear, equity-minded assignments. Participants will explore how transparency supports student success, reduce confusion and grading time, and learn how to structure assignments using the Transparent Assignment Design (TAD) model. The session includes strategies to improve student motivation, performance, and clarity around expectations.

Upon completion of this learning experience, participants will be able to:


understand the history of the TILT and it’s related research findings
describe how the TAD framework relates to equitable learning
define transparent assignment design and its key elements (purpose, task, criteria)
apply TAD best practices
identify resources for implementing the TAD framework.


 

Artist and researcher Hailey Becker (Art, Art History and Design and Forestry) will give a brief talk about her series of art installations marking the removal of trees on campus with beams of light and recount her journey to display and document the work in the Digital Scholarship Lab (DSL), including a short 360 video and an interactive campus tour of the installations. After the talk and opportunity to view the work in the DSL, the artist will take attendees on the interactive campus tour to see how areas of campus have changed over time and how these changes affect our sense of place and relationship to the environment. Light refreshments will be provided.

Join educators from around MSU's network for an informal hour of comradery, community, and coffee (or whatever at home beverage you're so inclined to sip). Hosted virtually on the first Wednesday of each month, this is a moment for you to protect time and engage with others sharing your role/passions.

Upon completion of this learning experience, participants will be able to:


Build connections and foster community among MSU educators
Create a supportive space for sharing experiences, challenges, and successes
Encourage informal exchange of ideas to inspire professional growth and well-being.

Throughout history, humans have been finding ways to revive, rebirth, and reconstruct their favorite artistic practices. Music has been one of the greatest playgrounds for these types of explorations. In acts that both pay homage to the past and push the craft forward, renaissances have revolved around time periods, genres, and even mediums. Join us for an interactive listening party where we take a closer look at some iconic musical revivals, ask how we got here, and wonder where we might go next.

Curated and hosted by: Lilly Korkontzelos, MSU Music Library Student Assistant and master’s student in Music Theory

What is THATCamp?

THATCamp stands for “The Humanities and Technology Camp.” It is an unconference: an open, less formal meeting where humanists and technologists of all skill levels learn and build together in sessions proposed on the spot (From: http://thatcamp.org/about).

Who is THATCamp for?

This day-long, in person, fun, unconference is a fantastic opportunity for people on campus, whether formally a part of the DH@MSU community or not, to gather, learn from each other, and make connections to carry forward into the academic year. We welcome:


Members of the DH@MSU community, old and new
Students in the Digital Humanities undergraduate minor or graduate certificate, and students interested in the minor/certificate
Humanists who are engaged in digital and computer-assisted research, teaching, and creation
Anyone doing or interested in exploring work in the digital, especially (but not exclusively) in the areas of arts, humanities, and social sciences


Why THATCamp MSU?

DH@MSU is continuing our annual THATCamp each August targeted at MSU faculty, staff, and students for a few reasons:


To bring people back together after the summer
To introduce new folks to the DH@MSU community
Share knowledge, expertise, and skills among the community
Build connections between community members for future collaborations, troubleshooting, and ice cream social time.


THATCamp is FREE! Please register here.

This workshop explores strategies for providing feedback that enhances student learning while helping you manage grading time. Participants will learn how to deliver intentional, elaborative feedback and how to prioritize higher-order concerns in written assignments. The session will also introduce educational technology tools and assessment strategies designed to streamline the feedback process. By the end, attendees will walk away with practical techniques to support student growth without increasing workload.

Upon completion of this learning experience, participants will be able to:


describe the role of feedback in promoting student learning
explain the benefits of providing students with intentional, elaborative feedback on multiple-choice questions (MCQs)
differentiate between higher-order and lower-order concerns in feedback on assignments
identify assessment strategies and educational technology tools that assist in time management when providing feedback.
