SUMMARY:Supporting PebblePad Adoption in Professional Programs
DESCRIPTION:PebblePad Workshop Summer Series 2025 \n  \nWorkshop #2: Lessons from the Field: Supporting PebblePad Adoption in Professional Programs\nThursday\, August 21\, 2025\n11:00 am – 12:00 pm | online\nFacilitator: Susan Bonham\, Langara College \n \nWhat does it take to successfully implement a new learning platform in a professional education setting? This session shares Langara College’s experience navigating common adoption challenges with PebblePad—challenges that will feel familiar to faculty and program leaders working in applied and professional programs. We’ll cover practical issues like instructor onboarding\, designing meaningful learning tasks\, and integrating assessment tools\, as well as what we’ve learned from student feedback. Come learn what worked (and what didn’t) to support a smooth and effective rollout.\n \n \nRegister now!\n \nContact Dave Smulders for more information.\n  \n\n \nAbout Our Facilitator: Susan Bonham\nI have an MA in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages from UBC’s Faculty of Education\, as well as a one-year diploma in teaching ESL from VCC. I spent six years teaching government-funded courses to immigrants and refugees before moving to Langara. At Langara\, I taught English for Academic Purposes for seven years before moving to Langara’s Educational Technology Department as an EdTech Advisor (non-instructional faculty position). All of my teaching was with adult learners\, and many of them were highly educated with many years of professional experience in their background.\n \nSince moving to Langara’s EdTech Department in 2020\, a great deal of my focus has been on ePortfolios and PebblePad. I led the PebblePad pilot that ran from 2021-2023 and have continued to be heavily involved in growing ePortfolio practice at the College since we moved past our pilot phase. Supporting and growing PebblePad use has been an incredible opportunity for me to learn about folio thinking\, experiential learning\, and authentic assessment. My experience ranges from the pedagogy (or androgogy if you prefer) of portfolio practice to an in-depth knowledge of the PebblePad platform (including the assessment side\, ATLAS). I have given workshops on the entire spectrum\, mostly to faculty but increasingly for students as well.

SUMMARY:TLC: Course Development with Articulate Rise
DESCRIPTION:Our department (CTLI) has been using Articulate Rise as an authoring tool for content that we can display inside Blackboard or on the web. Rise offers a set of features that make it relatively easy to produce content with some visual appeal. At the same time\, it has some limitations or cautions that people should be aware of. In this Teaching and Learning Collaborative session\, we want to take a look at some of the work we’ve done in Rise and talk about its value for curriculum developers. We also invite anyone else from the JI who has been using Rise to share examples and offer their observations. Come join us for this TLC conversation!
