Team Contract Template (a .docx file) - feel free to use for group work, particularly group projects.
In my experience, it's helped students be aware of each others' schedules and hold themselves accountable to the guidelines of participation and communication they collaborated on and agreed to.
Labor Contract Grading System Handout (a .docx file) - feel free to use as a template for your courses.
In my experience, it's helped students be active in their participation, see themselves as writers, focus less on grades, and better understand their grades. It's also helped me resist traditional notions of standardized assessment and embrace the creativity and unique voices of my students.
Labor-Based Grades Sheet (a Google Sheets file) - feel free to use as a way to calculate grades.
In my experience, LMS like Canvas don't accommodate alternative assessment well, so I made this Google Sheets to help me keep track of grades with my labor contract grading system.
Annotated Bibliography Workshop/Slideshow (a Microsoft Powerpoint file) - feel free to use as a way to help students navigate annotating sources for research.
Quotations Workshop/Slideshow (a Microsoft Powerpoint file) - feel free to use as a way to help students understand and integrate quotations (also includes cute cats).
Class Introductions Activity (a Google Slides file) - feel free to use to provide a shared space for students and you to get to know each other.
In my experience, it's helped to provide a creative space for students to design and explore and also make connections to each other's game experiences (and to my themed focus on digital games and genre)
