Attend or request a workshop
See our upcoming workshops. These are updated a few times a semester, so please check back often.
Session topics might include dissertation formatting help, creating effective presentations, editing and organizing photos, using digital tools thoughtfully in teaching, and how to design engaging and interactive class lectures.
We can also tailor a workshop to meet your needs, whether it’s for an undergraduate for-credit class, a student group, or an instructor cohort. Please contact us at scholarspace@umich.edu.
Use of the space
ScholarSpace is a collaborative space where conversations and discussions occur. In the space, you’ll have access to big screens to connect your laptop — ideal for small group projects — and the white walls are all whiteboards where you can draw and make notes.
If you're interested in hosting small, in-person instruction or consultation sessions, please contact scholarspace@umich.edu to learn more.
