What role would you like to play in organizing this workshop? I’m interested in organizing a workshop on this topic.
Intended Audience: Technology Instructors, Professors, Instructional Staff
Proposal:
With classrooms moving to online and blended formats, quality digital resources is an expectation not a luxury. The good news is that they are out there. But they are only good if they get used! To that end I have created a hub of (over 120) digital history and humanities projects focusing on secondary and higher education. In this session, participants are introduced to and explore a digital projects hub and practice how to use them. The session will conclude with a brainstorming session and are invited to add projects to the hub.
Learning Objectives:
Building pedagogical content knowledge
Increasing awareness of OER resources
Deepening instructional design
Event Type: Webinar/virtual
Track: Teaching & Learning (2025-26)
