BC TEAL is proud to present our 2025 Annual Conference: Disruptive Educational Practices: Strategies for Transformation.

Educators shine in times of change to face unexpected challenges. This is when creativity flourishes by combining proven practices with fresh and innovative ideas. These times call for transformation which can be rooted in tradition or experience, or it can arise through unexplored approaches. The synthesis of old and new ideas drives meaningful progress. Join other insightful and creative educators as we flourish within the power of our community.

Getting the most from your Avenue Courseware and ePortfolio
Saturday May 3, 2025 2:00pm - 2:45pm PDT
TBA
We want to take teachers on a detailed tour of the new updates to the Avenue course-builder, e-Portfolio and Binder. The new course-builder is there to help the instructors to create their own classroom. During the session we will provide some tips and tricks to customize the Avenue courseware, so it makes the course page more user friendly and fast. 


Topics covered include symptoms of a large course, using the Course Builder, creating a Sandbox Course/New Course, moving course content, using the Sharing Cart and Mass Actions Blocks, using Export/Import, using Back-up and Restore, removing topics, removing blocks, and large media files/YouTube streaming.

We have added more activity types that can be auto-collected to the e-Portfolio with tags, and these will empower teachers to create even more PBLA aligned material that can create e-Portfolio artifacts automatically for them. 


We will also demonstrate several activity and resource types that teachers can leverage for things like Inventory Sheets, Skill-Using Tasks, and Assessment Tasks. Guiding teachers through the process to set up these materials and demonstrating in real-time the time-saving potential inherent in the Avenue e-Portfolio through the use of sample students and the artifacts created during the session.
