Tooltime

Take a break, bring your coffee and bring your ideas. Snack on nifty apps and techniques to do crafty stuff. A fortnightly series of short casual meetups to introduce handy tools for your academic utility belt. Tools that might engage learners, streamline your teaching or to simply save time.

Next at Tooltime: Slack student teams for smarter teaching

In this session we look at how the collaboration platform Slack has enabled students in a large class to help themselves better, and shift email enquiries away from the subject coordinator.

Slack offers real-time messaging, archiving and search for modern teams. Join us as we go through some of the functions and benefits Slack offers to improve communication for your class.
