A camper has sent in the following proposal: Teaching literature in a course on Digital and Electronic Literature. I’ll preview my new course being offered on just that, think through approaches to literature and writing in a course on born-digital lit, and get people thinking about community college-specific strategies for teaching, learning, and collaboration. Will have some examples that people can access via smart phones and other platforms. Anyone with any interest, familiar with e-lit or not, is welcome, as are gamers, as the difference (?) between games and e-lit is a fruitful conversation.

A camper has proposed a session about the incoming traditional age students known as Gen Z focusing on the research around this population and the classroom and campus changes that are improving persistence for them.

A camper has proposed a session on the differences between the fall and spring semesters. Faculty often see varying results in student performance, assessments, and evaluations. There are a number of factors that could be connected to this both inside academia and outside of it and it would be worthwhile to have a conversation in a session.

A camper would like to do a session on how we can bridge gaps between the learning experience in high schools and community colleges.

A camper wants to do a session on search. It’s really hard these days to teach students how to effectively use the web when search results often bring up non-credible, inaccurate, or out of date results.

A camper has proposed doing a session about online teaching and gender bias. To what extent does technology morph identity? If students who are teenagers now get into social media, how does the visual media they distribute alter and define their identity?

A camper has proposed an idea for a session: How do we support EOF and first generation students with technology? Let’s brainstorm ideas for supporting these populations!

What kind of electronic resources can enhance reading comprehension?

What can be done to facilitate an interactive student handbook to engage digitally with students?

How can we increase the reach of writing labs into digital/virtual spaces?
