We have three distinct ways for participants to connect during OLC Ideate:
Live Salons are structured 45 minute blocks with a leader guiding the entire group through a series of provocations and discussion prompts.
Asynchronous salons are provocations and activities assembled by a series of leaders that you can work on at your own pace. These will include recordings and links to online engagement spaces.
Evening Socials are casual 45 minute meetups featuring informal topics, online games, and lightweight ways to connect with colleagues. They’re meant to restore our energy, good will and spirit after a long day of cogitation and ideation.
Part lightning talk and part collaborative session, each salon is structured to be highly interactive and participatory. Salon leaders will guide participants through discussions on topics related to a series of themes that are anchored around a week long design sprint.
As a reminder, these themes include:
Finally, don’t forget that over the course of five days, OLC Ideate will collaboratively generate a charter for ensuring diversity, equity, and inclusion within digital learning environments, connecting to a follow-up event in Spring 2021. You will leave with new connections to advocates and allies in this area, as well as resources that institutions and associations can use to improve access and impact of education for all learners.
OLC Ideate will take place from Dec 7-11, 2020 with Monday and Friday primarily consisting of self-paced asynchronous salons, and Tuesday-Thursday for live salons and social saloons:
