eLearning Summer Institute

Summer is just around the corner, and planning is underway for another fully online/remote Summer Institute. While the agenda is still in the works, we are excited to share time with you in both the live remote session and the online Canvas session of the Summer Institute. The Summer Institute is a time to gather with colleagues, learn Canvas tips and design fundamentals, how to create accessible online content, and how to use supported technology.

The all-day live-remote session is on Tuesday, Aug. 24, from 8:30 a.m. to 3:45 p.m. Our morning will be spent together as a large group as we move through six 25-minute micro lessons on a variety of topics. In the afternoon, you’ll have the opportunity to attend two break-out workshops of your choice. These facilitated workspaces are intended to allow you some time to work on some of the to-do items for your courses.

“This was the best online conference I have attended.  The organization was great and made it easy to stay engaged.  The modules were amazing – clearly organized, a good amount of content, all the content was extremely helpful.  I have done a lot of PD at BC, but I learned (and relearned) so much from this institute.  Extremely well done!!”
