Speed Networking Lounge

Overview |  Schedule 

Overview

Arguably one of the best features of conference attendance is the ability to meet up with colleagues, old and new, from across the country. From sharing ubiquitous challenges to collaborating on solutions and innovations, or just meeting someone with similar passions, these connections allow us to scale the impact of our work supporting students and reconnect with why we love what we do. But how do you make your time networking meaningful, especially if you are a person who finds it to be awkward or overwhelming?

Welcome to the OLC Innovate Virtual Conference Speed Networking Lounge, an informal conversation space where participants can slow down to connect with fellow attendees through lightweight activities and games. All are welcome to attend these informal sessions taking place throughout the conference. We hope they inspire informal chats, co-working, reflections, and collaborative explorations of emerging digital pedagogy.

During the virtual speed networking breaks, we will have some special activities planned as well as the opportunity to win prizes. You will be able to interact with other virtual attendees from the convenience of your desk.  For each session, there will be an “expert in the field” discussing a topic related to the theme. This will be an informal opportunity to connect and discuss topics of interest with folks all around the country and the world!
