The Totally Chill Summer Technology Book Club

Description

Start off your weeks in the sun or in the shade! Join the Learning Technology and Innovations (LTI) team for some low-intensity but highly engaging discussions on tech readings to help keep you thinking critically and creatively about teaching and learning in virtual and hybrid formats— and every way in between!

Our first reading will be 25 Years of Ed Tech by Dr. Martin Weller of the Open University (UK). More on Dr. Weller and his work can be found here.

This e-book is available as a free download from Athabasca University Press.

Or— if you’d rather— dig into the audiobook version! It’s a book that is also a podcast!

Dates: Every second Monday in May and June and one Monday in July, from 12:00 PM until 1:00 PM.

Attend one session or attend them all! We look forward to seeing you there!
