Conference Presentations
Presenting and conferences is opportunity to showcase your experiences in your field of work. I have been able to present as part of a team and solo at the Northwest Managers of Educational Technology (NW/MET) several times. I have also co-presented for the Arbor Day Foundation National Conference.

If not you…who? Empowering Instructors to Meet ADA Standards
In this presentation, LCSC e-Learning Services will share how they developed a timeline and resources to address accessibility in online courses. The purpose of e-Learning Services’ work is to make meeting ADA standards an achievable goal for instructors who teach online. With limited funds and limited “man power,” the responsibility of making content accessible falls to individual instructors. To reach this goal, e-Learning Services created a “Universal Design for Learning” resource portal that provides training about accessibility standards and training for the technology tools used to meet those standards. Join us as we discuss our process, challenges, and successes in this ongoing endeavor.

Play Games. Become a Leader.
Games are fun, but they are also a stealthy way to learn. We learn better when we are engaged, and what’s more engaging than having a good time? This session will have you participate in games that can improve the leadership qualities of you and your team members.

Tree Walks to Reduce Stress
In 2020, Lewis-Clark State College's Tree Campus service learning project focused on using tree walks to reduce stress in our student population. LCSC professors Dr. Rhett Diessner and Dr. Rachelle Genthos, and their undergraduate research assistants studied the stress relieving qualities of taking a 10 minute “tree walk” on campus. Learn about the methods used and results of their project.
