Dear colleagues,
Several BCcampus websites, including BCcampus Open Education (open.bccampus.ca), are currently unavailable due to recent power outages. We do not have an estimated time of when the sites will be online. However, our technical team is working on resolving this issue as soon as possible.
Affected sites (that we know of):
bccampus.ca and subpages (e.g., covid19.bccampus.ca)
open.bccampus.ca
bcoel.ca
bctlc.ca
etug.ca
Sites NOT affected:
pressbooks.bccampus.ca
opentextbc.ca
solr.bccampus.ca
tlpd.bccampus.ca
While the B.C. Open Textbook Collection (which is housed on open.bccampus.ca) is not available right now, if you have the direct link to a particular textbook that is in one of our Pressbooks instances, it should be available, as Pressbooks and SOL*R are unaffected.
We appreciate your patience as we work to resolve these issues.
Thank you,

Dear colleagues,
BCcampus would like to invite you to attend the Trades Summit Series 2021<https://bccampus.ca/event/trades-summit-series-2021/?instance_id=3383>.
Every Monday in November, join Tim Carson, provincial representative for open education in the trades, for opportunities for trades educators to explore different avenues for their course design and delivery.
Dates are Nov. 1, Nov. 8, Nov. 15, Nov. 22, and Nov. 29, from 2:00 to 3:30 p.m. Pacific time.
This five-week summit series will cover the following topics:
* Pathways. Journey from Face 2 Face to Hybrid — with Lucy Griffiths (yesterday, Nov. 1)
* Leveraging Technology for Team-Based Learning — with Chad Flinn
* Humanizing Assessments — with Nicki Rehn
* Building Communities of Practice: From the Micro to the Macro — with Sally Vinden
* Podcasts for Learning Trades? — with Tim Carson
Participants are encouraged to attend each session, as each week builds on the last in hopes of creating a community of practice among trades faculty and staff. The last session with Tim Carson will be a live podcast recording.
This event is free. To ensure we have an inclusive and welcoming environment for all, we’ve added registration to all our sessions.
Register for the Trade Summit Series<https://events.eply.com/2021TradesSummitNov1> (there is one registration form to gain access to all five events).
Best,
Arianna Cheveldave [Hear my name]<http://nmdrp.me/ariannacheveldave>
