Hi Ann I just realized I'm not getting any OER list-servs anymore. Is there any OER canada list-servs you think this might be good to send to? [image: 2021 eLearning in Libraries Symposium December 8 and 9 via Zoom. 10 minute showcase or 60 minute concurrent presentation/workshop. Proposals due Friday October 15, 2021. Successful proposals will be notified on Friday October 22, 2021.] The eLearning in Libraries Symposium <https://sites.google.com/view/elearning-in-libraries-symposi/home> is currently seeking proposals <https://forms.gle/UtnfZZ7viwJ5h1267> 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 the Covid-19 pandemic 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 and the eventual return to the classroom. 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 past year and your plans for Fall 2021. 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 meet the challenges presented by the Covid-19 campus closures and your future plans for the eventual return to campus. 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 15, 2021 Successful proposals will be notified by Friday, October 22, 2021 Sincerely, the eLearning in Libraries Collective. -- We are online to support you!
