Between Oct 22 and Nov 22, I’ll be talking about “#UDL at scale” across the United States at 4 major conferences: #EDUCAUSE, #PODNetwork, #OLCAccelerate, & #LillyCon.

Will I see you? I’m happy to chat, sign a book, or get a selfie!

🔍 Exploration and playfulness aren't just fun—they're vital for our soul and mind when it comes to #learning, especially outside the classroom. Today, I'm thrilled to present this fascinating topic alongside the esteemed Reginald C. Jackson, Ed.D. and Tracy Balduzzi. Join us! 🎉

Looking forward to seeing you there!
Cool moment of the day: I attended a session at #OLCAccelerate about microlectures & Pecha Kucha. When the presenter shared her references slide, I was surprised to see my Faculty Focus & Edutopia articles listed there! This was my first time seeing my work cited in someone's presentation! 😊 #Accelerate2023 #Microlectures
I'm excited to be a first-time attendee & presenter at #OLCAccelerate this week! Join me for my sessions, "Fostering Creativity & Collaboration with Freeform" & "Creating Energizing Discussion & Reflection Opportunities with Thinking Routines." #Accelerate23

Had a great time at #OLCAccelerate this week and am equally happy and exhausted. Getting to see old friends again was the social battery recharge I needed, and the discussions on #onlinelearning and #highered #research were thoroughly energizing. Thanks again to @josieahlquist for the nostalgic keynote! Will be looking forward to seeing more #OLC community end up tooting instead of tweeting.
Clarity, Confusion on ‘Regular and Substantive Interaction’ (RSI)
https://www.insidehighered.com/news/2022/11/17/regular-and-substantive-interaction-online-college
RSI is a new regulation issued in reaction to online "correspondence courses" in which there were little or no faculty-student or student-student interactions. #OSCQR's site and diagram is helpful for understanding #RSI regulations: https://oscqr.suny.edu/rsi/

'Regular and substantive interaction' in online college

The Education Department has left room for online colleges to innovate while maintaining eligibility for federal financial aid. But the lack of clarity carries some risk that colleges could run afoul of unarticulated rules.
