The next session in the Supervising Student Workers series is on tailoring job responsibilities to student success and to marketability for future employment. We hire student employees because we have work to do but also because we are trying to prepare them for the job market outside of Sinclair. Carlina Figueroa, from Work-Based Learning, will offer advice on how you can help your student workers make the most of this opportunity to build their resumes and to prepare them for the workforce.

2:00 - 4:00 PM

We will be hosting a screening of "The Career Path Less Taken," a 30-minute documentary that challenges traditional notions of successful educational pathways leading to skilled jobs. Participants will have the opportunity to learn about how the K-12 educational space is transitioning and how Sinclair School Partnerships is working with high schools, regional partners, and Sinclair departments to better prepare youth for jobs of tomorrow. Join us to watch the documentary and dialogue about how we can innovate for the future!

Successfully Managing the Tortoise and the Hare in Your CBE Courses

FlexPace courses allow students to set their own pace, which oftentimes can be more tortoise-like than lightning-speed hare. In this uniquely diverse online environment, FlexPace faculty may find it challenging to manage students on both extremes of the speed spectrum without employing some automated technology assistance from eLearn. Join us as we explore both new and tried-and-true ways to use technology to support both the tortoises and hares in your CBE courses. We will share the latest FlexPace news, practice with eLearn tools that support regular and substantive interaction, discuss gradebook and course management, and more. Bring your challenges and we will problem-solve to find creative ways to meet your FlexPace needs!

No prerequisite but, at least one semester teaching a CBE course or a spring CBE course assignment would be valuable.

11:30 AM - 12:30 PM

Join Assistant Art Professor Anthony Wolking for a Tour of the Art Department’s 3-D Area, including Woodshop, Foundations and Sculpture Lab, and the Ceramics Lab. You will view projects engaging students in the intersections that are inherent between math, science, and art making - ranging from the art of the object, both functional and non-functional to the redefining of spaces through the practice of installation art.

Anthony will also discuss contemporary approaches to three-dimensional creative processes explored in ART 1102 - 3-D Foundations, a prerequisite to Sculpture courses.

The next session in the Supervising Student Workers series is on HR issues. Dara Moore and Natalie Rindler, Sinclair’s own HR Generalists, will talk about common issues you may have with your student workers and how to address them. From tardiness, to substandard work, to rewarding a job well done, Dara and Natalie have you covered. They’ll leave time for questions at the end.

12:00 - 1:00 PM

Sinclair is developing structured 36-month associate’s degree pathways, similar to the 15-month model, in selected academic programs. These part-time pathways will be designed to serve the needs of all interested students, but especially adults who cannot pursue their education full time. The ECMC (EAGLE) grant will provide support and guidance for students who commit to a 36-month pathway. Learn more about the students we hope to attract, the degree pathways and the grant.
