adjunct faculty support day 2022 Friday January 28 2022 9am - 4:40 pm online via Microsoft teams

What, Where, and When:

On Friday, January 28, 2022, Daytona State College is proudly hosting our annual Adjunct Faculty Support Day. This event provides professional development opportunities for all faculty members, adjunct and tenure-track alike; along with an opportunity to network with your peers and meet those members who are new to the college. The event will be hosted live in the Faculty Innovation Center, which is on the Second Floor of Nunamann Hall (Building 200 on the Daytona Beach campus) from 9:00 AM until 4:40 PM EST; and will consist of 6 one-hour sessions - 3 in the morning, and 3 in the afternoon, each with a 10-minute break in between. You do not have to attend the entire day; but you are welcome to do so. For those who would prefer to attend online, each of the sessions will be available via MS Teams. However, for those attending live, the event does culminate with an Ice Cream Social (and yes, individually wrapped ice cream treats will be provided, courtesy of your Professional Development department).

Initial Introductions

For those of you who may be new to the substantive interaction log, this tool was created and piloted by the School of Humanities and Communication faculty. It is intended to help faculty plan and track weekly interactions with students. Furthermore, it creates a simple and quick way to provide transparency between faculty and their chairperson when reviewing substantive interaction.

This substantive interaction log is designed as an HTML template you can add to your Falcon Online course shells so you can enter quicklinks to areas of your course where you are providing substantive interaction, such as Announcements, Assignments, Discussions, etc. As with any webpage file you create and save in Falcon Online, open the menu and select "Edit HTML" to add or edit information as needed.

New & Improved

The first iteration of this tool in Falcon Online resides in the Learning Object Repository (LOR), still searchable under Dr. Donna Mixon and available for copy. An easier method to locate and use this substantive interaction log in your course is now live - an HTML template!

Follow these few steps below to add it to your course today (but remember to keep it hidden from students!)
  1. From a module in Content, click the Upload/Create button.
  2. Create a File.
  3. Add a title and click the checkbox below the title to "Hide from Users."
  4. In the drop-down menu next to the title box, select Substantive Interaction Record.
  5. Save and Close.

Questions?

We are happy to guide you through the process of setting up the substantive interaction log in your course as well as demonstrate where feedback and interaction can take place. For specific questions regarding your substantive interaction, we encourage you to connect with your chairperson. As always, please make sure you're subscribed to ensure you are up-to-date with the latest tips and tricks from the FIC!
