WA Annual Canvas Conference 2019

This presentation is about our eLearning program, A.I.M. We started this program after we learned about "SWAT team" at Olympic College. Our major task is to help faculty who want to improve the accessibility of their online content but do not have the skills or time to do the work. These faculty partner with an AIM person to do the majority of the accessibility work for them.

Some people may view Canvas as The Hulk roaring at them instead the brilliant scientist Dr. Bruce Banner solving the world's problems. Some LMS support professionals aren't fully aware of their superpowers when helping their clients. Chris Powell, Canvas Admin for Western Washington University, will bridge the gap between teachers and techs and offer perspectives from both sides. Be prepared to explore vulnerability in the workplace, and learn how a few nuggets of knowledge can turn a mild-mannered newcomer to Canvas into a powerful force for academic good.
