National Distance Learning Week 2018 Lunchtime Series Learn about ADP, Collaborate, Panopto, accessibility, Ultra

One in four students take some of their courses online, and two-thirds do so at a public institution in the same state where they live (Allen, Seaman, Pouline, & Straut, 2016; Allen & Seaman, 2017). In early November, UMBC celebrates the 11th anniversary of National Distance Learning Week (NDLW) with a series of lunchtime conversations. Topics include:

Hybrid or Online? Learn about the Alternate Delivery Program

Attend this information session to learn more about the Alternate Delivery Program. Ask specific questions related to the ADP Course Designer Track Call to Participate for Spring/Summer 2019. Previous ADP alumni will be on hand to share their experiences!

Support Student Engagement with Collaborate Ultra

Imagine a room that was perfectly outfitted for collaboration -- except the room only exists online. Collaborate Ultra is an integrated web conferencing tool available to faculty through their Blackboard course shells. Attend this virtual session to learn best practices, workflows, and use cases.

Panopto Lunch ‘n’ Learn

UMBC has recently announced the licensing of Panopto, our new and improved screencasting platform. Learn about how Panopto could change the way you think about lecturing.

Explore Accessibility in the Technology Test Kitchen

Bring your own device (laptop, tablet, smartphone) to one of our Technology Test Kitchen areas to learn and explore both faculty and student approaches to accessibility. Each Kitchen features “chefs” from Accessibility & Disability Services or IT to discuss “recipes” (strategies, tools, resources, etc.) for addressing a particular issue.

Monthly Blackboard Ultra Experience Orientation

UMBC's current flavor of Blackboard has not changed significantly in many years, but that's about to change with the Ultra Experience! Attendees will receive information about training opportunities and how to access an Ultra Experience sandbox. Discuss the differences between course conversion and course redesign, and learn about other features exclusive to the Ultra Experience.

Please RSVP: A light lunch will be provided for in-person sessions.

students at HCC As an ongoing effort to improve transfer process of community college students to UMBC, Dr. Ronghui Ma, a co-Director of the ME S-STEM Scholarship Program and the Director of Undergraduate Program in the ME department, gave a seminar to new students in engineering at the Howard Community College this month.  Dr. Ma's talk consists of three parts: ME program at UMBC in general, ME S-STEM Program, and ongoing research project in her research lab at UMBC.  The room was packed, showing the enthusiasm from the students at HCC to have an opportunity to interact with a faculty from the ME department at UMBC.  Students asked many questions related to the transfer process to UMBC's 4 year ME program and they were excited to hear scholarship opportunity they can apply for, as well as research opportunity they may have at UMBC.  We are looking forward to seeing many applications from HCC students next year. ]]> As an ongoing effort to improve transfer process of

Check out her internship with Columbia Academy Preschool

Name:Chyna Ayres

Internship, Co-op or Research Site:Columbia Academy Thunder Hill Preschool

Position Title: Preschool Teacher Aid

Major(s)/Minor(s):Psychology/English

Work Term:Spring 2018

Tell us about your internship, co-op, or research opportunity, including your day-to-day responsibilities.

A typical day starts off with greeting the children and their parents as they are getting settled into the classroom. Once the parents leave, we interact with the children as they participate in activities with their classmates until breakfast time. During breakfast time, me and another co-teacher, help the children clean up and set the tables for breakfast. Once breakfast is over, one teacher helps with potty training and the other teacher helps with cleaning the tables and making sure the children have had enough to eat and drink. Throughout the day, we do art, we do circle time where we introduce new material and concepts to the children in creative ways, we take them outside to play when the weather is nice, we dance and sing to music, then we prepare for lunch and more potty training takes place. After lunch, the children take a nap that lasts up to two hours. After nap time,  the children use the bathroom and prepare for snack time. And after snack time, aftercare takes place.


Describe the process of obtaining your position. When did you hear of the position and submit your application?

I heard about an career event on campus and I decided to apply to the job because it was exactly in my career interests. I had to apply online with an attachment of a resume and a cover letter. I went to the Career Center to have someone help me create a cover letter and look over my resume. I found the service very helpful and helped me land this job. No more than a day later, I received a phone call from the company and they wanted me to come in for an interview and was hired soon after.


What have you enjoyed the most about your position or organization?

I have enjoyed the learning process of entering the career as a preschool teacher. Through the company, I have been able to gain training and receive certificates relating to child development in Maryland. I was even able to attend a conference this year as well. I also love the caring and supporting atmosphere I receive from the preschool center. I can't wait to see what will happen as I grow into my career and I find my niche working with children and parents.


How do you believe you have made an impact through your work?

I believe that I've been able to create an impact at my job by being a great team player when it comes to creating and participating in developmental activities with the children. I also help to create an impact on the children's lives and empowering them to become comfortable in their skills and abilities.


What advice would you give to another student who is seeking an internship or similar experience?

If you love working with children, just know that you have to be skilled in working with the children's families as well. Also, having a lot of patience is key.
