Hypothesis: Creating Assignments That Require Social Annotation in Blackboard
Instructor: Gloria Barron
Adding hypothesis as an external tool to readings in Blackboard supports student success by placing active discussion on course readings, enabling students and instructors to add comments and start conversations in the margins of digital texts. This workshop is an excellent opportunity to learn about the potential of social annotation as a learning tool and discuss creative ways to increase engagement in your courses.
Attend this session to get everything you need to begin your implementation of hypothesis assignments. Create engaging and interactive reading assignments in Blackboard or expand your knowledge with the new ability to access Blackboard files and create student groups.
Outcomes:
- Describe how to get started with hypothesis and feel comfortable creating a graded assignment.
- Create assignments that require students to read socially and make annotations or replies to other contributors.
- Gather some fun ideas for expanding the use of collaborative annotation to improve student success.

Bloom’s Taxonomy
Instructor: Laurent Ndeze
In short, Bloom’s Taxonomy refers to a series of cognitive skills and learning objectives arranged in a hierarchical order, forming a pyramid shape. It was initially developed by Bloom, an educational psychologist, in the 1940s and later revised by David Krathwohl and Lorin Anderson in 2001. In this workshop, we will use a revised version to examine how you can apply the Taxonomy during the planning process of your course or lesson. The taxonomy provides a clear and precise framework for mapping out your course, whether introductory or other levels within the curriculum, including course revisions.
Outcomes:
- Align content according to hierarchical levels of cognitive learning
- Design effective learning objectives
- Design activities that enhance diverse ways of learning
- Construct relevant assessment questions
