Presenter Conference Calls
Washington Campus Compact (WACC) would like to support this year's new and continuing presenters by offering a series of conference calls based on your needs and interests. We hope to both enhance your experience as a presenter and provide opportunities for you to network with your colleagues. Your participation in these conference calls will be completely optional.
The first set of conference calls will focus on presentation basics such as:
- first-time concurrent session presenters;
- presenting as part of a poster session;
- how to reach out to multiple audiences;
- effective active teaching/learning methods;
- being intentional about session participant learning objectives; and
- presenting your model as one others can adopt
A second set of conference call discussions will focus on presentation content. Potential key educational issues of discussion include:
- building an engaged campus or department;
- achieving and documenting student learning outcomes and/or student development outcomes;
- cultivating and sustaining campus-community partnerships;
- collaborating across disciplines and departments;
- building strong communities among students;
- increasing access, enrollment and retention of a diverse student body;
- building student leadership;
- recognizing engaged scholarship in tenure and promotion processes;
- collecting, assessing, and evaluating data;
- deepening the service-learning and community engagement body of knowledge through research;
- identifying the campus as a responsible environmental citizen;
- developing and fostering safe campus communities; and
- maintaining financial stability for the institution in light of decreasing public investments
