9:30-10:30: AODA Roundtable: Accessible media strategies (this is still relevant and perhaps worth keeping)

In this roundtable discussion, we would like to focus specifically on how institutions across the province are approaching the development, conversion and administration of media, focusing primarily on videos (closed captioning and described video). The roundtable will produce a shared resource guide outlining tools, services and strategies. See AODA Information and Communication Legislation at http://www.e-laws.gov.on.ca/html/source/regs/english/2011/elaws_src_regs_r11191_e.htm#BK9

This hands-on workshop will begin with a mini-panel with Laurie Harrison, Giulia Forsythe and Jaymie Koroluk, who will share their experiences with leveraging technology in several key areas (blended learning, social media and synchronous communication technology). Participants will then work in groups to brainstorm and develop ideas around several key questions: 1) What are the institutional priorities we need to align with? 2) What are our key faculty development goals and strategies? 3) How can we leverage technology to implement strategies and meet our goals? Record your ideas on a Leveraging technology for strategic alignment and faculty development - online doc at capturing all our ideas in one place.
