type iconAsULearn Quiz - Introduction
AsULearn's Quiz module is a powerful tool that allows faculty to create and administer quizzes online. With its many features, it is very popular with faculty even though it is one of the more advanced tools available in AsULearn. In this introduction, the workshop reviews how to create various question types and add them to a question bank.

This workshop focuses on the most commonly used question types including: Multiple choice, True-False, Matching, Short Answer and Essay. Once the questions are stored in categories in the question bank, then teachers can add a quiz activity to a course employing a range of options. Options include quizzes with different question types, randomly generated questions from the question bank, quizzes with time limits, and multiple quiz attempts. In addition, effective quizzing practices are reviewed.
type iconIST Blog Workshop
This workshop introduces users to the basic functions for creating and publishing blog posts to the International Student Teaching Drupal website at Appalachian. Users who will be adding blog posts to the website are required to attend. Please note the prerequisites.
type iconNSF Graduate Research Fellowship Program
The National Science Foundation (NSF) Graduate Research Fellowship Program (GRFP) program recognizes and supports outstanding graduate students who are pursuing research-based master's and doctoral degrees in fields within NSF's mission. The GRFP provides three years of support for the graduate education of individuals who have demonstrated their potential for significant achievements in science and engineering research. Each Fellowship consists of three years of support usable over a five-year period. For each year of support, NSF provides a stipend of $34,000 to the Fellow and a cost-of-education allowance of $12,000 to the degree-granting institution.

Associate Professor of Chemistry Dr. Jennifer Cecile, who serves as a reviewer for the NSF's Graduate Research Fellowship Program (GRFP), will share information about how to develop competitive proposals. Additional sessions can be scheduled to review proposal components, like the Personal, Relevant Background and Future Goals Statement and the Graduate Research Plan Statement.

This event invitation is extended to all faculty mentors and students (undergraduate and graduate) who work in areas of study supported by the National Science Foundation.
type iconMore Excel
This workshop takes a look at some more Excel functionality, such as Conditional Formatting, additional Interface Options to help you work, some useful functions and formula examples, as well as approaches to specific tasks, such as working with Survey data, Mail List data, and Pivot Tables.

FAA Faculty Advising Workshop
This workshop is intended for both new and experienced faculty advisors in the College of Fine and Applied Arts to ensure a comprehensive, unified approach to academic advising as well as for those seeking to enhance their skills. We will discuss tools developed to aid in academic advising, review advising content in AppalNet, learn how to interpret the Programs of Study, and navigate functions in DegreeWorks such as the What-If, Look Ahead, GPA Calculators, and more.

Note: Please bring a laptop or tablet with you to the workshop if you have one.
type iconAsULearn Quiz - Calculated Questions
Calculated questions offer a way to create numerical questions with individualized, variable answers by using wildcards or variables (e.g., {x} or {y}) that are replaced by distributed, randomized values when the quiz is taken.

For example, if you want each student to see a differently valued "Calculate the area of a rectangle" problem, you can create a question with two wildcards (i.e. {base}, {height}) and put in the "Correct Answer Formula=" input field {base} * {height} ( * being the multiplication sign ). AsULearn will then base scoring of each student's answer for the question on the values he or she received when taking the quiz. Essentially any mathematical functions or operators supported by the PHP computer language can be used in the formulae for correct answers.
Assessment 101 for Academic Programs
The purpose of this workshop is to introduce or provide a refresher to faculty or others involved in assessment on student learning outcome assessment. The workshop will address the purpose of assessment and general steps in the assessment process. Good examples of assessment plans from other academic programs on campus will be shared.
Faculty Transfer Mentor Training
A Faculty Transfer Mentor is a faculty or staff member interested in developing supportive, academic relationships with prospective and new Appalachian transfer students. Mentors, ideally in the student's area of study, will provide help in understanding the curriculum and the student's remaining required coursework as well as provide guidance, support, and referral to resources that will benefit new students in a new environment. Mentors have the ability to influence, encourage, and guide transfer students to enhance their academic success. During the training participants will learn about the characteristics and needs of transfer students, the transfer student population at Appalachian, and what you can do to support transfer students and to be a successful transfer mentor.
