Throughout the series, we will discuss the importance of connectedness and how to intentionally plan synchronous and asynchronous components for maximum effectiveness. We will also address how to maintain equity and access in online environments.
Attendees will create classroom activities, workshop new tools, and connect with colleagues in breakout rooms to share their experiences and expertise.
