October 20th: Learnvelo - Your course, your text book, your way - Jim Kowatch

Session Description: Open educational resources and faculty-authored texts have reshaped what students pay for course materials and who decides what they read. The text itself, while central, is only one element of a functioning online course. The assessments, media, tutoring, and engagement data that surround it remain the instructor's burden to assemble. This workshop introduces an approach that extends an open or self-authored text into a complete course environment, or builds one directly from the syllabus for instructors whose current text cannot travel with them, preserving the author's ownership and the resource's license while adding the structure distance learners depend on.

October 30th: Padlet to Boost Student Engagement and Creativity - Larissa Walder

Session Description: Looking for ways to engage your students and boost their creativity? Join this minds-on session with Padlet! Leave with ideas and strategies you can implement right away that support learners’ creativity and voice. Learn a bit about Padlet (including new features!), experience adult-level learning, and start to brainstorm tools you can use tomorrow.
Larissa has over a decade of teaching, coaching, and PD facilitation experience in science and technology. In student-facing roles, Larissa’s favorite age group is 7th grade, who she describes as her “soul people,” and in working with educators, Larissa loves to bring the same playful curiosity from work with middle school into PD and learning experiences for adults.
