In courses that I teach, where I did not develop the course shell, I would improve the rubrics. I would make them more specific and address the requirements of the assignment.

I’m not sure it is my “ultimate’ summer read, but I recently read “The Price She Pays” by Katie Steele, LMFT and Tiffany Brown, PhD, LMFT. This non-fiction book is about the hidden health crisis in women’s sports.

When I am setting up my Canvas shell before the start of the semester, I copy announcements from the previous semester, or I change the publication date to after the end of the semester, so they are not accidentally published. I always title my announcements with the week of the semester. Yes, sometimes, assignments are changed to different…
