As announced by Chancellor Khosla, UC San Diego courses will be delivered fully remote for the first two weeks of the WI22 term (January 3rd through January 17th, 2022). Here are some things to be aware of as you prepare for the WI22 term:
WI22 courses, including announcements and inbox messages, can be made available to students as of today (December 22nd) once you publish your course.
Timely communication with students is especially critical at this time. Therefore, email notifications for announcements are now enabled in Canvas. Please make sure to publish the course before sending out communications to students in Canvas.
For smaller classes, a synchronous lecture often works well; for large classes, it is often better to have an asynchronous lecture followed by some form of a “live” discussion. Asynchronous content is better for accessibility.
Disruptions to the regular teaching schedule and formats brings additional challenges. Here are a few things to consider when making alternate plans during the first two weeks:
Below, is a list of our campus-supported remote instruction tools, along with links to tutorial videos and other resources:
Please note: Canvas courses are limited to 4GB of storage. Therefore, video recordings should not be uploaded to the Files section of a Canvas course. Please use the My Media tool in Canvas to store video recordings.
Please note: If you are an instructor or IA/TA teaching a Winter 2022 course during the remote-only mode from Jan. 3 to Jan. 17, and require a Zoom Large meeting license to accommodate a 300+ enrollment lecture, please contact us at zoom@ucsd.edu. We have temporary no-cost Large meeting licenses available for your use.
Use My Media and Media Gallery to upload, store, and publish videos in Canvas.
