Session Description

Ontario Extend is a professional learning micro-credential grounded in the belief that the impact of learning should be the primary motivator for creating technology-enabled and online learning experiences. It aims to empower educators to explore a range of emerging technologies and pedagogical practices for effective online and technology-enabled teaching and learning. The Ontario Extend program is designed to explore key skills and knowledge to extend and transform our teaching and learning, contribute to the digital fluency of educators and support digital tool selection using evidence-based research.

This fall we are offering all six Extend modules as facilitated courses with optional synchronous drop-in sessions delivered in the Brightspace Learning Management System and you are invited to join the community of over 1200 postsecondary educators in Ontario! This session will provide participants with an overview of the Ontario Extend program, offer a peek inside the learning environment, engage in a module activity or two to get started and discuss how to become an Ontario Extender this semester!
