Our theme will be "Techno-Charged Teaching!" (see the agenda below) where we will be exploring a number of apps and technologies that can boost student engagement and provide us with insights into what our students are (or are not) understanding. This day will be BYOD (Bring-Your-Own-Device), so grab your laptop, tablet, and/or smart phone and come ready to get digitally down and dirty!

Description for this session:

Techno-charging our classes can be an invigorating and transformative experience for us as well as our students. However, we also need to recognize that our students come with varying types and levels of capabilities, knowledge, etc. This session will focus on ADA considerations and how to use Universal Design for Learning (UDL) principles to help guide our course development.
