Locked Out! Can You Fix This Digital Classroom?
Tuesday August 18, 2026 7:45am - 9:15am CDT
We spend hours creating beautiful Google Slides, digital assignments, and online classroom pages, but are they accidentally locking some students out?

Join us for a hands-on Breakout EDU game where you and a team of peers will race against the clock to solve a mystery! A fictional teacher's online classroom has been locked down right before the first day of school because of a few common formatting mistakes. To crack the codes and open the box, your team will spot and fix everyday design errors involving fonts, colors, links, and images.

This isn't a lecture about tech laws; it’s a fun, stress-free game about how small tweaks to your daily design habits can make your digital materials easier to read, navigate, and learn from for all students.

⚠️ Note: Space is limited due to the physical breakout boxes, so grab your seat early!

Fix-It Clinic: Bring a Lesson, Leave Compliant
Tuesday August 18, 2026 9:30am - 10:15am CDT
You don’t need to be a tech genius or a legal expert to make your classroom materials accessible—you just need to know where the "Easy Button" is hidden.
In this relaxed, 45-minute workshop, we are pulling back the curtain on the built-in Accessibility Checkers already hiding inside Google and Canvas. These tools scan your documents in one click, point out formatting issues, and tell you exactly how to fix them in seconds.
This is a "Bring Your Own Lesson" session. Bring a laptop and one digital worksheet, slide deck, or online quiz you want to clean up. We will run the checkers together, make the quick fixes, and ensure your materials are ready for every single student next year before the session ends!
