Accessibility requirements are often overlooked and often misunderstood. However, inaccessible content prevents some of our students from fully engaging in the rich digital learning experiences we are creating in our classrooms. In this workshop, we will review accessibility guidelines and needs, and get hands-on experience with tools to promote access and test websites to ensure that they provide high quality learning experiences for all.

The Opportunity Myth
Far too many students graduate from high school still unprepared for the lives they want to lead. They enroll in college and land in remedial courses, or start jobs and discover they’re missing skills they need. Is this a secondary school problem? No. It starts from the very beginning. We need to understand why. We will unpack "The Opportunity Myth" and understand what students can show us about how school is letting them down—and what we can do to fix it.

Putting the "T" in EquiTy"
What does it mean to achieve educational equity?  How can we purposefully integrate technology to support us in our quest?  In this session, we will define what equitable instruction looks like; discuss the learning science behind student motivation, skill acquisition, and retention; and explore pedagogical strategies, paired with digital tools, that can propel us forward on our path to reach educational equity.  Additionally, we will investigate how to intentionally and effectively implement digital tools to drive equitable access to grade-level content for ALL.

Hitting the Bullseye: Standard Aligned Assignments
The time is now for each school to develop a process for Professional Learning Communities (PLC) to ensure that assignments are aligned to standards and gauge the rigor of the assignment. Handouts include group activity materials (i.e., whole group, small group, and pairs). This session will model and demonstrate strategies on building foundational knowledge which includes: (a) jigsaw activity teaching DoK levels; and (b) a group discussion using “Rounds Protocol” about how the presented process could be used in team meetings in our schools to ensure students have quality assignments.
