I have not used/heard of Liquid Syllabus before.  After delving into the tools provided by the Humanizing Online STEM course, I realized the significant enhancement it could bring to the visual appeal of all my online content. This improvement commences right from the first electronic interaction with my students.

Consolidating all essential information on a single page has proven to be a convenient one-stop solution for my students before the semester begins. This marks a considerable upgrade from the welcome email I used to send out. The benefits are manifold: all pertinent information is now conveniently accessible in one location, the content is systematically organized, and there's a distinctly human touch evident throughout.

MATH 11 is an elemtary statistics.  This course provides necessary knowledge and skills to analyze data.  In many different applications, data represents a sample coming from a population.  We want to explore the patterns and relationships from a true underlying population.  Hence, the rationale for choosing this picture is becuase of the population.  This course studies attempts to study the population through data.  

The homepage is designed for simplicity and clarity. It guides students seamlessly to the initial weekly module and will persist as a central hub throughout the semester, ensuring a shared understanding among all of us. To enhance accessibility, the homepage features direct links to assistance and technology resources. This strategic placement eliminates the need for students to search within the Canvas page for these crucial items. Additionally, my contact details, accompanied by a photo, are prominently displayed. Adjacently, I've outlined specific timeframes for students to anticipate my response to their emails or calls.

This survey inquires about students' basic information in order to get to know them better.  By posing these questions, it communicates that individuals are not merely viewed as grades to be earned but are recognized as complete individuals with unique learning habits and requirements.

Self-Affirming Ice Breaker will allow the students to know each other and find things they have in common with peers using a tool called Flip.  I've developed a fun prompt for the students to share something important to them with their peers. Detailed instructions are given in the Canvas. 

Using Adobe Express, I crafted a concise video introducing the distinctions between summative and formative assessment. The goal was to inject more engagement into the learning experience. Prior to the creation of this video, the learning content page was burdened with dense text, resulting in a monotonous presentation. 

This microlecture provides a short tutorial explaining the standard deviation.  It also provides a calculation example.  This helps student with the learning objective:  Compute the standard deviation from a dataset.  Condensing this content into a concise video, as opposed to a lengthier lecture, enables students to hone in on this typically challenging concept and distinguish it from related topics like the introduction to amino acids and translation. Additionally, for students seeking a refresher later in the semester, the convenience of revisiting this brief video is preferable to navigating through a lengthier lecture to locate this specific concept.
