Needs / Expectations for Activist Contingent Gatherings: #cocalXI #altCOCAL

Are you thinking about attending COCAL XI in New York City in August, 2014? With a conference theme “Shaping an Equitable & Democratic Future For Higher Education—The Way Forward,” we have to wonder about what you need or want from such an event. That is the focus of this #AdjunctChat.

The chat will be led and facilitated by @slicksean, @PrecariousFac , and @VCVaile.

Our discussion will focus on these questions:

Q1: Are you planning to attend #cocalXI? #AdjunctChat #altCOCAL

Q2: If you plan to attend #cocalXI what do you want or expect? #AdjunctChat #altCOCAL

Q3: If you do not plan to attend #cocalXI why not? #AdjunctChat #altCOCAL

Q4: What are some next steps for activist adjuncts? #cocalXI #AdjunctChat #altCOCAL

All adjunct, contingent, part-time, visiting, casual, and non-tenure track instructors, along with their allies and friends in higher education, are welcome to #AdjunctChat on Tuesday, July 22, from 4:00-5:00pm EDT.

Even if you do not readily fit into the above, #AdjunctChat is open to all! The more perspectives, the better we all learn with and from one another.

Best Practices with Mobile Tech

Background information, the context, and discussion question about this topic may be found on the post Best Practices with Mobile Tech: #adjunctchat Tuesday, July 15. The chat will be led and facilitated by Virginia Yonkers @Comprof1.

To quote from the post that @Comprof1 wrote for today’s chat:

In this week’s #adjunctchat, we will trade some best practices for using mobile technology (m-learning) both in traditional classes and online classes. We will look at the use of mobile technology in academics as a whole and the challenges for adjuncts specifically.
