DC Connect: Tool Synergies

The tools available in DC Connect can be associated with each other so that information passes from one to another. Assessment associations and release conditions are how we make this happen. Combining tools together can increase productivity and student engagement. 

Assignment submission folders are commonly associated with Grade Items, but did you know you can… 

• Associate a rubric with a Discussion topic? 
• Control access to an assignment submission folder with a Checklist?  
• Reward high achieving students with automated positive messaging? 

In this workshop, participants will: 

• Create and attach release conditions to content and activities.  
• Associate Rubrics with assignment folders, discussion topics, and grade items.    
• Control student access to an assignment submission folder with a Checklist. 

In the absence of these tools, how would you manage your course with a comparable level of personalized communication? What would the work be for all this, just in time? A manual process is costly. If 45 minutes per learner is saved by using them, and 40 learners are in your course, that’s 1800 minutes or 30 hours per course. There is an upfront time investment, but with significant return. Energy can be focused on teaching, not administration.
