Connecting and Reconnecting Session

The Connecting and Reconnecting session for part-time faculty was initiated in 2012 upon the recommendation of several part-time faculty. The purpose of this session is to share important information about Carthage, the liberal arts tradition, and important resources for students and faculty with part-time faculty who are often on campus only in the evening or on weekends.

Those who attend will learn the following:

• What Carthage’s identity and mission as a liberal arts college mean for its faculty, staff, and students.
• How you can help a student with special learning or emotional needs get the support they need to be successful.
• How to use Schoology, our learning management system, including recently added tools.
• How to submit an early alert to the Center for Student Success if a student in your class is not being successful, or if you have other concerns.
• How your students can utilize the services of the Writing Center as a resource on all types of written assignments.
• Where to get answers to any questions you might have now or may have during the semester.
