Yellowdig is an academic social networking platform designed to “build active, social, and experiential learning communities for online, hybrid, and in-person programs.” It’s a powerful platform that many NMC faculty have integrated into their courses to replace traditional discussion forums and increase student engagement. Last fall we completed the second stage of our Yellowdig Pilot Project and this term 10 faculty are using the platform in 24 courses with over 400 students. 

If you’re interested in learning more about Yellowdig, would like a demo, or if you want to use the platform this fall please reach out to me soon. Or, watch the recording of our Summer Shorts session below. A course fee is added to each course using Yellowdig prior to registration opening. This has to take place before Wednesday, March 8, 2023 in order for students in your sections to participate in the fall.
