Past Event or Opportunity
This opportunity has concluded. This page’s content may be out-of-date.
As part of our organizational response to the COVID-19 crisis, AECT is planning a series of three open and free webinars that target international, higher education, and K-12 contexts. The first webinar announcement is below.
Everyone is welcome to attend; it is not a members-only event. As such, please share this announcement widely and with colleagues who may be outside of our normal AECT family. We often are exasperated by our lack of voice and just “talking to ourselves.” These topics are broad enough to appeal and address topics many professionals across different contexts may be interested in. Perhaps a college-wide listserv and an email forward to your center for teaching and learning?
