Course Stories, Season 5, Minisode - Join us at FOLC fest!

We’re interrupting your regularly scheduled episode this week  – I know we promised a totally regular season, but this is Course Stories, we are nothing if not exciting every week! We promise though, we’re interrupting that feed for some exciting news and opportunities for you, our listeners! Next week, Course Stories will be live, in person at FOLC Fest! This is the inaugural FOLC Fest where passionate educators are coming together to discuss the future of learning. Join us for a very special live episode where we will talk about inclusive online learning, support, and resources available to faculty and designers, and everyone’s favorite topic – AI! We will also be hosting a poster session and want to encourage you to check out another project the EdPlus Media team supports – Space for Humans. We also give you the scoop on an exclusive (okay – not that exclusive) red-carpet event TONIGHT! We can’t wait to see you at FOLC Fest!
