Hello friends!
I am excited to announce the lineup for this year’s GSOLE Webinar Series: "Instructors as Designers: Considering UX Design in OWI." Please see the attached PDF for the full schedule or view our website for more information: https://gsole.org/webinars
We are especially eager to invite you all to register for our first webinar in the series, "Critical Language Awareness (CLA) Meets ‘Digital Story-Mapping’" presented by Mary Lourdes Silva on November 10, 2024 @ 4:00pm – 5:30pm ET. Register today at this link: https://gsole.org/event-5439449
In this 90-minute webinar, Dr. Silva will take participants on a journey from analogue story-mapping to digital story-mapping that applies a CLA approach. Participants will have a chance to create their own analogue and digital maps and share stories pinned to specific locations on the map and in their memories. They will learn to use applications like Google street view, Google My Maps, and Knight Lab. Last, based on an educator’s area of interest or discipline, they could apply a CLA approach to narrate geological maps, historical maps, political maps, demographic maps, linguistic maps, economic maps, literary maps, and social or cultural capital maps.
If you have any questions, please reach out to the Webinar Committee at webinars; otherwise, we hope to see you at a webinar this year!
