SUMMARY:Webinar: Ten Features of the Future of Learning Beyond School: How Can We Build Back Better?
DESCRIPTION:The future is not a straight line from the past. As universities and colleges come to terms with some new realities – operational\, financial\, logistical\, ethical – what does their future look like? What needs to change? What will change? \nThe Challenge \nCOVID-19 has been a game changer for governments\, universities and colleges. They now need to imagine a different future – one with fewer international students\, less money\, more flexible and different approaches to learning\, new competitors and new approaches to credentials\, skills and competencies. \nGovernments and employers are also looking towards colleges and universities to respond to urgent needs to upskill and reskill the workforce\, many of whom are deeply impacted by changes in the employment landscape. Whole sectors – hospitality and tourism\, airlines\, retail – have been massively impacted. \nAlready\, some universities and colleges around the world have closed. Others are reducing programs and services and more changes are on the horizon. In Canada\, some governments are investing in post-secondary education while others are making dramatic reductions in funding. All governments are exploring new approaches to apprenticeship and skills. What is on the horizon in terms of policy\, funding and expectations? \nThis presentation will build on recent contributions to the work on strategic foresight related to post-secondary education and the place of technology in the future of learning. \nKey Takeaways \nAs a result of this presentation\, you will better understand: \n\nThe social\, economic and political challenges facing colleges\, universities and training organizations in Canada.\nThe five big challenges colleges and universities face as we begin to imaging a post-pandemic world.\nThe ten dominant change features of post-secondary education post-pandemic.\nThe three imperatives for a different future which are required from policy makers and institutional leaders.\n\n\n\n\nTags: COVID & Online Learning \n\n\nHost:\n\n\n\n\nDr. Stephen Murgatroyd\nContact North | Contact Nord Research Associate\n\n\nDr. Stephen Murgatroyd\, FRSA teaches strategic foresight at the University of Alberta and University of Toronto and strategic management at Athabasca University. A pioneer of online learning – he led the team that created the world’s first fully online MBA in 1994 – he also serves as Contact North | Contact Nord’s Chief Innovation Officer. \nStephen has authored over forty books\, including two on strategic foresight\, and has consulted for educational organizations and governments in Paraguay\, Chile\, New Zealand\, USA\, Canada\, Australia\, Dubai\, UK\, Hong Kong\, China\, South Africa and Europe.

SUMMARY:Webinar: Digital Learning as a Tool for Social Justice
DESCRIPTION:Research shows that student performance in gateway courses is a direct predictor of retention and student success. However\, Black\, Latinx\, Indigenous\, and other minoritized student groups have historically been underserved in these courses\, resulting in higher DFWI rates and lower retention rates for these students. Digital learning can be a catalyst for improving course outcomes for historically minoritized students\, but instructors also need awareness and tools to address the affective\, interpersonal\, and situational challenges that Black\, Latinx\, Indigenous\, and other minoritized student groups experience. In this session\, I will share strategies for faculty and institutional leaders for digital learning transformation at scale that centers on equity and racial justice. \nOutcomes\n\nRecognize the challenges of digital learning facing Black\, Latinx\, Indigenous\, and other minoritized student groups\nExplain how intentional course design and instructor strategies can improve course outcomes for historically minoritized students\nDescribe strategies for digital learning transformation at scale that centers on equity\n\n\n\nSpeakers\n\n\n\n\nJessica Rowland Williams\nDirector Every Learner Everywhere\, WICHE/WCET

SUMMARY:Webinar: How to Use Zoom in the New (Blended) Normal: Models for Student Inclusion and Engagement
DESCRIPTION:As plans ramp up for students and faculty to gradually return to campus this fall and winter\, educators will face a new normal. \nSome pre-pandemic\, face-to-face classes will still be taught fully online. Some will offer students a mix of face-to-face and online study\, while others will be largely face-to-face with an online component. \nZoom will have a significant role to play in all these scenarios\, but remote students may feel alienated and disengaged from their in-class peers unless preventive steps are taken. \nKey Takeaways \nTailored to instructors\, instructional designers and academic administrators\, this engaging webinar shares seven models for Zoom-supported teaching and learning. Host Dr. Ron Owston helps participants understand how to ensure all students are fully included and engaged in these models: \n\nFully synchronous\nBlended synchronous and asynchronous\nFlex blend: Students alternate between attending face-to-face and online according to predetermined schedules\nHyFlex: Students freely choose whether to attend face-to-face or synchronously\nTraditional blend: Mainly face-to-face with an integrated online component\nFlipped: Content delivered online\, students attend in small\, in-person groups for guided/tutorial work\nFace-to-face with Zoom breakout discussion/work groups\n\n\n\n\nTags: Zoom \n\n\nHost:\n\n\n\n\nDr. Ron Owston\nContact North | Contact Nord Research Associate\n\n\nA pioneer in online teaching and research\, Dr. Owston ranks among Google Scholar’s most cited blended learning researchers globally. \nThe founding Director of the Institute for Research in Learning Technologies he is a former Dean of the Faculty of Education and University Professor Emeritus at York University. \nDr. Owston’s webinars on effective use of Zoom for teaching as part of the Contact North I Contact Nord Webinar Series are lauded by educators around the world: \n“I’ve really learned a lot the last 6 or so months watching your Zoom webinars. My students have noticed and I share with you their kudos. I look forward to upping my Breakout Zoom Room game!” \n“I really appreciate Ron’s effort and I need to watch this all over again to try the different possibilities.” \n“Thank you very much Ron! This was a very informative session! I am excited to try to put together a class for my learners.” \n“I wanted to comment on how useful these sessions have been – I have learned a lot from attending and/or watching them afterward.
