Find yourself immersed in teaching with no spare time for anything else? We love our jobs, but know it’s not healthy to do them 24/7. So, how do we manage to find some down time? The Shoreline eLearning Community will meet on Friday, Jan. 17, starting at 1:30 p.m. in room 2926 and will focus on tips for finding time for life beyond teaching: time management strategies, Canvas tricks, grading tips, you name it!  Everyone is welcome!   Snacks provided!
Homework:  Each participant is asked to “bring” 1) their time management challenges, and 2) one time management tip to share with the group.
