SUMMARY:Locked Out! Can You Fix This Digital Classroom?
DESCRIPTION:We spend hours creating beautiful Google Slides\, digital assignments\, and online classroom pages\, but are they accidentally locking some students out?\n\nJoin 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.\n\nThis 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.\n\n⚠️ Note: Space is limited due to the physical breakout boxes\, so grab your seat early!

SUMMARY:Clear & Connected: Creating ADA-Friendly Newsletters and Flyers
DESCRIPTION:When we send out weekly newsletters\, permission slip updates\, or classroom announcements\, we want 100% of our families to receive the message. But did you know that standard practices\, like emailing a screenshot of a flyer or pasting giant website links\, accidentally lock out parents who rely on translation apps\, screen magnifiers\, or smartphones to read school updates?\nIn this practical\, 45-minute session\, we will shift our focus to parent and student communication. You will learn how a few tiny\, effortless tweaks to your emails and newsletters can ensure your messages are perfectly readable for every family\, every time.\nThis is a hands-on session. Bring a template or draft of a communication you send home often (a weekly update\, a syllabus\, or a field trip flyer). We will give it an "accessibility makeover" together so you can start the upcoming school year communicating with total confidence!

SUMMARY:Hold Back the Flood! Create & Design Instruction for Success Before Struggle
DESCRIPTION:What if we approached unit planning more like flood prevention? We would anticipate pressure points before problems arise\, and put supports in place beforehand. This session will give you (K-12\, any content) a practical diagnostic framework to prepare for the academic\, social\, and executive demands of a unit before it trickles over. We will build support proactively and make instruction more efficient for both students and teachers. You will be given time to listen\, then time to work.

SUMMARY:Clean Design\, Clear Minds: Universal Design (UDL) Made Easy in Canvas
DESCRIPTION:Have you ever looked at a Canvas page and felt your eyes cross from the sheer amount of text\, links\, and embedded videos? Imagine how our students feel! When digital pages suffer from visual clutter\, working memory shuts down\, creating a massive learning barrier\, especially for students with processing differences or executive dysfunction.\nThe good news? With DesignPLUS (by Cidi Labs)\, you hold the key to defeating digital clutter.\n\nIn this immersive\, 90-minute hands-on lab\, we will blend the principles of Universal Design for Learning (UDL) with practical ADA accessibility. You’ll learn how to launch the DesignPLUS sidebar to magically transform overwhelming "walls of text" into beautifully organized\, interactive content pages using clean tabs\, drop-down accordions\, and stylized modules\, all with zero coding required.\n\nThis is a workshop session. Bring a laptop and your ugliest\, most crowded Canvas page. Together\, we will give it a total UDL makeover so it is visually calming\, incredibly easy to navigate\, and 100% ADA-compliant!
