Coffee Hours
With LMU's classes and almost everything else going online, much has changed for our teaching and our students' learning and lives. We have invited representatives from different parts of LMU to talk with faculty about how they will work this fall, to answer questions, and to allow faculty to speak with them and each other. These are informal gatherings with short overviews at the beginning followed by Q&A and conversations.
Want to know how your teaching and our students will be supported in our new online world? Want to hear what challenges and opportunities may present themselves? How the events of the last couple of months have influenced our teaching and students? Join us by following the zoom links below.
All Coffee Hours will be 9:00-10:00am. We plan to record these gatherings so people can watch them later if desired. [zoom link]
