1a. Making the Links: Connecting on LinkedIn Anna Bartosik
Having a digital footprint which you control is invaluable. Connecting with colleagues and potential employers is even better. Add to that a digital portfolio? It all adds up to LinkedIn. We will move from the basics of setting up an account and ensuring your privacy to discussing what should/shouldn't be a part of a profile. We will conclude by exploring LinkedIn's professional development tools, which often get forgotten.

Experiential Learning: A Guided Approach Low Tech /Experiential Grammar Activities Anna Bartosik
Experiential learning has been touted as an effective strategy to support learning in higher education...but can we apply it to the ESL classroom? We will have a go at some ideas to implement teaching grammar, listening, and doing research with students. No BYOD or computer labs are needed for this interactive workshop, but the examples we work through together will touch on "no tech" as well as "some tech."
