w88 slot strategies

WebCampus makes it easy for students to submit their work to you in one central online location and makes it easy for instructors to manage submissions and provide feedback and grades. Most assignments originally designed for hard copy submission in class can easily be translated to online submission at any time. This page provides some tips on how to be effective in writing your w88 slot prompt and in communicating w88 slot expectations to your students.

Writing a clear w88 slot prompt

When putting together your w88 slot description, try to provide enough detail to give students the full picture of what they will be doing, why they will be doing it, and how you will be evaluating their work. The more student questions you can anticipate and answer in the prompt, the fewer you will have to answer via email later. If you are using the rubrics tool, Turnitin, and/or peer review with the WebCampus w88 slot, also share your expectations regarding the use of these tools.

Mary-Ann Winkelmes(2013) recommends clear and explicit wording for assignments, in order to avoid confusion and promote transparency.  Consider the following as you prepare w88 slot assignments for online submission:

• Purpose: Communicate to students what knowledge or skills they will gain from completing the w88 slot and how that knowledge or skill will be valuable to students. You may make want to make explicit how the w88 slot supports the course learning outcomes.
• Task: Communicate the steps that students should take to complete the w88 slot.
• Criteria: Well before the w88 slot is due, share with students the rubrics or checklists that you will use to evaluate their work.

Communicating w88 slot expectations to your students

Once you’ve designed your WebCampus w88 slot you’ll want to clearly communicate your expectations to your students. It’s a good idea to post your w88 slot details within the w88 slot description so students will be able to review the w88 slot requirements in the same place where they will later submit the w88 slot. It will also show up on their WebCampus calendar and to-do list, and will be clearly linked on their grades page so they can see how this fits into the larger course grade. Rubrics, Turnitin, and peer review tools can also be linked to the WebCampus w88 slot.

You may want to consider one or a few of the following additional methods for being clear and transparent about your w88 slot:

Introduce the w88 slot and its purpose:  This may happen in class, as a pre-recorded video posted in the WebCampus weekly module, or as a WebCampus announcement (or all three ways!). Think of this as the first day on which you'd tell the students about the w88 slot. This might be a few days or weeks before the w88 slot is due, depending on the rigor of the w88 slot. If you have a rubric, introduce it as well.

Walk w88 slot through previous student sample work:show your current students what has worked, and what didn't quite make the grade in previous semesters. Make sure you have permission from the previous student, of course, and remove any identifying information before sharing with your current students. Previous student work may be provided as linked documents directly within the w88 slot description in WebCampus, or you may choose to review previous work in class.

Plan in scaffolded w88 slot: If you have a major project due, help w88 slot work their way through steps that will get the project done. Brainstorming activities, drafts of small sections of the paper, mini-research reports that feed into the larger project, etc.: any of these will help chunk out pieces of the larger project in a way that will keep the w88 slot more engaged, as well as make the larger project seem less daunting.

w88 slot reminders: Don't just expect your students to look ahead to future activities; if you want them to be thinking ahead, you need to help guide them to do so. Providing reminders with links to the w88 slot in weekly overviews, WebCampus announcements, or via email can help keep students on track.
