This was really fun. I had the opportunity to think deeply about if I could be a learning designer. I realized along the way that I may already be one.

I presented with Dr. Natasha Boskic at Canadian Network for Innovation in Education (CNIE) 2019.
I presented (with Stoo Sepp) at the Canadian Network for Innovation in Education (CNIE) 2019. UBC recently piloted an open source team chat technology called Mattermost, which has now been implemented at Enterprise scale for courses and cohorts. Implemented wisely, chat has the potential to increase timeliness of feedback, encourage student to student collaboration, and increase a sense of community within an online course. This technology has been transformative in how it blends real-time and asynchronous modalities, challenges the formality of a traditional discussion forum, and encourages ongoing participation. This session will cover real case studies from UBC's Faculty of Education and provide a space to engage with them in groups.
I presented with faculty and staff colleagues from UBC at BCNET 2019 about Mattermost's UBC implementation and how it is being used to enhance teaching and learning. #BCNET2019 Presenters were Letitia Englund, Dr. Mari Pighini, Pan Luo, and Tim Kato.
