eLearning in Libraries - Call for Proposals (due Oct 30th)
Stephanie L. Quail
Hi everyone,
I'm one of the eLearning in Libraries Symposium planners. We're currently seeking proposals for 10-minute eLearning Showcases and 60-minute Concurrent Sessions/Workshops. This year’s Symposium will take place online, via Zoom, from Tuesday, December 8 to Wednesday, December 9, 2020.
Libraries have long been centres of innovation and adaptation, and 2020 has provided ample opportunity for us to flex our creative muscles. We want to hear about (and celebrate!) all the ways that eLearning is helping libraries remain vibrant sources of knowledge in the midst of unprecedented global challenges.
10-Minute eLearning Showcase
These rapid fire presentations showcase specific eLearning projects, initiatives, highlights, and fail stories. We encourage you to submit proposals that highlight some of the great work you have undertaken in the online learning space during the Covid-19 pandemic.
60-Minute Sessions and/or Interactive Workshops
These sessions typically focus on a specific aspect of eLearning and can take the form of an interactive workshop, panel, lecture, etc. We encourage you to submit proposals that highlight how you have used eLearning and other techniques to pivot your services during the Covid-19 campus closures. Topics could include:
-
Hands-on software demonstrations (i.e. H5P, Powtoons, Videoscribe, Voice over Powerpoint)
-
Best practices in synchronous or asynchronous online instruction
-
Open educational resource creation, adoption by faculty, training programs & more
-
eLearning instructional design techniques
-
Expert perspectives on hot topics in eLearning (accessibility, virtual / augmented reality, etc.)
-
And anything else you can dream up!
Submit your proposals here: https://forms.gle/UtnfZZ7viwJ5h1267
Proposals close on Friday, October 30, 2020
Successful proposals will be notified by Friday, November 6, 2020
Thanks,
Stephanie
