The Centre for Teaching & Learning, in partnership with the Centre for Continuing Education, is running the Welcome to My Remote Course speaker series, which features a number of faculty and instructors from across the university community sharing a glimpse into their course design and delivery. On January 19, 2021 at 12:00 pm, we will continue the series with our fourth presenter Dr. Douglas Farenick, Dean of the Faculty of Science.

In this webinar, Dr. Farenick will share an overview of how he teaches Mathematics 103. Dr. Farenick uses the software tool Explain Everything for teaching mathematics in a remote fashion (both synchronous and asynchronous) and for working remotely on mathematical research with graduate students and collaborators. In this presentation, Dr. Farenick will: (i) review how he structured Mathematics 103 as a web-based asynchronous course, which he taught in the Fall 2020 semester; and (ii) demonstrate some features of the tool Explain Everything, for both asynchronous and synchronous web-based teaching. Note: The hardware requirements for Explain Everything are a tablet and stylus.
