This provided a great reminder that not everyone is technologically savvy and that it could be a barrier to students being able to maximize their learning experience in this environment. In many ways members of the youngest generation are used to more simple design  with minimal steps (ex. Instagram), often they are confused if more that two or three clicks are required to accomplish a task. It is a great idea to identify portions of the course that may require multiple steps (ex. Proctored exam software) and address this by providing more detailed information and warning that more clicks than… >>>

I learned why synchronous discussions are not often used in group chats, one important reason is that it is the logistics of gathering more than a few students together at one time.

On the other hand there are often students in need of assistance because of documented circumstances that are afraid to ask for help. Communication is a constant ebb and flow, trying to find that perfect balance. And sometimes it happens. 

Great questions. Have you tried the trick where the instructor puts unrelated information in the discussion topic, to see who is just copying/pasting vs using AI as a tool to enhance their own ideas/writing?

Where can I find the current college policy regarding AI generated work? This seems to be a rapidly evolving topic and I would like to be on top of current protocols specific to this college. 

Course management software is used in organizing and delivering educational content, communication, and supporting student learning. Its provides students and faculty have a structured environment that promotes accountability and collaboration. The software can help standardize course delivery, making it easier to maintain consistency.
The software’s acts as both a teaching aid and a learning resource. Course management systems enhance efficiency, provide transparency, and create a flexible framework that supports diverse teaching strategies and student needs.
