CIDI Workshop - Web Broadcast Teaching Tips
Workshop/Training
Learn how to plan, begin, and successfully teach a class over Zoom. This workshop focuses less on Zoom functionality and more on teaching strategies for keeping students engaged and minimizing distractions when teaching in real-time, remotely.
The Day After Tomorrow: Art in Response to Turmoil and Hope
Exhibition
Our new reality is profoundly different than it was six months ago. Curated amid pandemic and protests, "The Day After Tomorrow: Art in Response to Turmoil and Hope" explores how artists respond to crisis, offering parallels to our own emotions and experiences this year.
"The Day After Tomorrow" is divided into three themes. "A Better Tomorrow" focuses on transcendence, alternate realities, the divine, afterlife, and bliss. "A Worse Yesterday" comprises works of art that address events that have shaken the world and thrown it into crises such as world wars, nuclear proliferation, AIDS, genocide, racism, and immigration. "Awry Ecosystem" focuses on art by artists concerned with the environment and how humans are changing it.
Also included is a Community Response Space, which will feature rotating exhibitions of work by local artists and where you can share your personal journey through an interactive display.
Latinx Virtual Center
Cultural
The Latinx Cultural Center is providing you with a Virtual Center! You can check in to see what your Latinos In Action council is up to, find resources for your online classes, ask about opportunities during this difficult time, and allow us to stay home together with you. If you would like to be included, please let us know, and tell all of your Aggie friends! The video chats "La Hora de la Sopa" will be open every week on Wednesdays from 11 am to 2 pm until August 07th via WebEx, This will allow you to check-in and out on your own time, just like the physical center! We are planning on continuing the virtual center as long as we need to until we are able to meet in the physical center once more and are all able to meet again on campus.

1. Support learner choice/need of attending either in-person or remotely.
2. Provide equivalent learning experiences for all students.
3. Prepare an instructional plan.
4. Leverage features of Zoom to help engage students who attend remotely.
Stronger than Steel? The Wonderful World of Spider Silk
Lecture/Readings | Agriculture and Natural Resources
Flexible, lightweight, strong, biocompatible, and water-resistant. A material with all of these properties can mean life-changing medical devices, protective equipment, and even building materials. But who came up with this super product? Spiders!
Can you imagine trying to farm spiders that eat each other and yield relatively small quantities of silk? This is where spider silk expert, Justin Jones, comes in. Join us for a lecture and discussion with this USU researcher and professor to learn about how his lab creates synthetic spider silk through the use of transgenic goats, bacteria, alfalfa, and even silkworms!
Dr. Justin A. Jones is an assistant professor in the Department of Biology at Utah State University. Dr. Jones received his Ph.D. degree in biology from Utah State University in 2015. He has worked with spider silk and its recombinant forms since 1998 while attending the University of Wyoming.
