2026 CSI Summer Conference: Teach Together

Instructors often ask themselves, “Am I doing enough?” Enough to support student learning. Enough to meet course outcomes. Enough to ensure alignment between what is taught, what is assessed, and what students are expected to achieve.   This continuing education session offers a guided tour of the Open Educational Resource (OER) courses for ALLH 100 and ALLH 101, designed to help instructors confidently answer that question. Participants will explore course structure, Student Learning Outcomes (SLOs), and the assessments intentionally built to support and measure those outcomes.   Through this interactive walkthrough, we will: •    Examine the Student Learning Outcomes for ALLH 100 and ALLH 101 •    Review how assignments and assessments are aligned to each outcome •    Identify where rigor, relevance, and student support are embedded in the course design •    Discuss how OER materials enhance access, engagement, and instructional effectiveness •    Reflect on instructional practices and calibration of “enough” in the context of quality and equity   By the end of the session, instructors will leave with a clearer understanding of how alignment drives student success at a college level, greater confidence in their instructional decisions, and practical strategies for evaluating and strengthening their own course design.
