Instructional Designer. Trainer. Educator. Aspiring supermom. Love shopping, reading, and all things polka dotted. Would rather be at the beach right now.

Digital Destitution discussion at #OLCIdeate is sobering. Equity of access must address access to devices and access to internet. Lack of these resources can be enough for students to give up on their education and can lead to society of digitally included & excluded.

Cheers to the fabulous @OLCToday team for a tremendous week of learning! #OLCAccelerate 2020 was such a great experience. #bestAccelerateever

@karenraycosta I agree with @LoriMumpower and like Learning Agreements. Another option might be Learning Charter. I know some project teams I've been part of have created team charters to agree on set modes of communication, responsibility, etc.

The explanation of substantive and regular interaction offered by @historydoc in this You Are What You Do #OLCAccelerate session is incredibly valuable. So much to consider in terms of remote learning and regulations - thanks @wcet_info

Concerns about a syllabus could signify a bigger problem in terms of course design and, ultimately, lead to a negative learning experience for students. ~ @csoleil #OLCAccelerate
