Promote spring courses via CHSS social media and video outreach

Promote spring courses via CHSS social media and video outreach

Now that the spring schedule has been posted and students are making advising appointments to plan their registration, CHSS Academic Affairs is ready to support the promotion of your courses through our outreach channels! 

In a continued effort to highlight CHSS courses throughout the registration cycle and into the winter months, we are going to do another CHSS social media course promotion via SP23 course flyers on CHSS social media. We are also going to continue promoting your courses via CHSS video course promotion on your course details page and CHSS Youtube. Please see below for details and instructions. 

1) CHSS Social Media Course Promotion

2) CHSS Video Course Promotion 

We know that video is a medium that really enhances student engagement. Faculty have been making great videos highlighting their course content for the past few semesters. If you have a video you’ve made and are teaching your class in spring 23, let us know and we will add it to the SP23 playlist. 

Here are some guidelines and pointers to facilitate your creation of short videos (in most cases less than a minute) featuring you highlighting your own course content. In your video clip: 

  • Say the name of your course; is this class a requirement? Part of the Mason Core? 
  • Mention some of the things students will learn 
  • What is one of the major assignments? 
  • What is your own favorite part of this particular class? 
  • What have previous students seemed to really enjoy about your class?
Starting immediately, we are collecting these videos via Dropbox. If you already have a video and are teaching the course again, please let us know and we will add it to the SP23 playlist.

Thank you so much for participating in this outreach effort! We truly appreciate it. Please reach out to Troy Lowery if you have any further questions.
