As mid-terms are upon us and as final exams are less than 2 months away, some instructors have expressed concern about the integrity of their exams and assessments with the absence of in-person proctored environments. Lockdown browsers and online proctoring solutions are expensive, have technical challenges, and could compromise equity. Are you looking for ideas to completely alter your assessment strategy? Are you looking for ways to take advantage of features in Sakai or Zoom? The format of this will be an open dialog where people can share their questions and ideas with each other and identify areas for follow-up.

Over the summer a few librarians worked together to create a suite of interactive tutorials that are applicable to all disciplines and levels. The tutorials are stored in Kaltura on a channel called Engaging with Scholarly Content. Each tutorial has a distinct url and embed code both of which can be added into Sakai. Kaltura requires students to login so basic analytics are stored such as the students' names.  In addition, they designed the tutorials with questions embedded throughout so faculty could receive a report on which students took the tutorial and their corresponding responses. Knowing the faculty are required to provide asynchronous content during the week of Thanksgiving, they thought these might be of use for that purpose.
