What are you waiting for? Submit today!

The WACC 2024 proposal deadline has been extended to January 26th!

The 2024 WACC conference theme is EMPOWER! and we’re excited to learn about how you are empowering yourself, your students, and your fellow instructors and staff. The eLearning Council is dedicated to equity, diversity, and inclusion and we’re looking for proposals that reflect equity-minded and re-imagined teaching, learning, and technology practices.

The conference will be held in-person at Tacoma Community College and virtually in Zoom – Wednesday and Thursday, March 27th – 28th, 2024. Due to feedback from last year’s attendees, we strongly encourage you to present in person.

All are welcome to present, so come share your amazing work! This includes faculty, staff, librarians, IT folks, instructional designers, admins, access services, student services, veteran’s services, tribal liaisons, students, and the list goes on and on. The first round of proposal approvals is already underway, but you still have an opportunity to have your topic considered.

We’re open to receiving proposals on ALL types of teaching, learning, and technology topics, especially topics that incorporate equity-minded and re-imagined practices. Whether your presentation is designed for newbies, veterans, instructors, staff, tech wizards, people who write their passwords on post-it notes affixed to their monitor, or anyone in between – we’re interested and eager to consider your submission. Some potential topic areas to consider are:

  • All things Canvas from newbie hints to expert hacks to best practices to advanced features
  • Anything advancing equity, inclusion, and accessibility
  • Open Educational Resources (OER)
  • Excellent pedagogy/andragogy methods, practices, and tips
  • New tools for empowering students
  • Everybody’s favorite buzzword, AI
