Tips for Implementing Collage This Fall

As you set up your course in Collage, I encourage you to think of it not as an add-on, but as a learning environment that can strengthen the work you already do with students. I used Collage last semester in my introductory physics course, and I found that its greatest value came from intentionally connecting students’ work in Collage to what we were doing in class. The more clearly I established those connections and the more consistently I used student responses to inform my teaching, the more meaningful the experience became for students.

Practices

Here are the practices I recommend as you prepare your course:

01

Make Collage an integral part of the course.

Determine how Collage will support your course goals, and plan how you will connect students’ work in Collage to in-class discussions, problem-solving, and collaborative activities.

02

Align Collage activities with students’ in-class learning.

Design or select activities that directly connect to the concepts, questions, and skills students are engaging with in class, so their work in Collage reinforces and extends their classroom experience.

03

Review and refine activities before assigning them.

Check AI-generated content for appropriate difficulty and alignment with your course, and customize it when needed.

04

Set clear expectations for participation.

Explain how often students should use Collage, when activities are due, and what meaningful engagement looks like.

05

Emphasize that Collage is a space for learning.

Encourage students to make mistakes, ask questions, and use feedback to improve rather than focusing only on getting the right answer.

06

Use student responses to shape your teaching.

Interact with the analytics feature to query student understanding and identify common misconceptions or areas of difficulty, then use those insights to guide targeted explanations and activities.
