Importances of educational themes in fall festival
Answers
Hi dear
Festival Theme – Higher Education: Handle with Care
How does care manifest – or fail to manifest – in our practices, policies, structures, spaces, technologies and pedagogies? How could we be better caretakers and caregivers in the context of post-secondary education and in service of student learning?
Inclusive by design
An important driver for the planning of the event was inclusion – ensuring that everyone can attend #FoL18. Inclusion was obvious in the details. Here are a few items we included:
Deep discounts for early-bird registrants, students, speakers, and volunteers
Free childcare
Wheelchair accessibility with preferred seating in the most accessible areas of each room
Option to add pronoun ribbons to your conference badge
All-gender washrooms
Healthy meal choices for all
