For three days last October, literacy professionals came together to discuss and share ideas about how to bring literacy and essential skills to the forefront of issues in Canada at OLC’s Spotlight on Learning: Becoming Agents of Change conference.
This website is host to workshop videos, resources, downloads and much more, and we will continually be adding to it over the next few months, so if you missed the conference or just want to refresh some topics, this website is your go-to tool. The conference may have ended, but the learning continues!
Highlights of the site include:
- Our Speaker section revisits our guests speakers’ presentations on issues of importance
- Browse Workshop Streams to peruse the multitude of literacy workshops that were held at the conference, with topics including Embracing Technology, Marketing Literacy, and Recognizing the Profession
- We piloted a learning program with six literacy organizations across Ontario. Want to know more about these organizations, or how they are becoming agents of change? Check out Change in Action
We want to hear from you. Questions or Comments? Have a resource you would like to add? Want us to profile a change you or your organization made after the conference? Contact olc@on.literacy.ca and let us know!
Be the change you want to see in the world by becoming an Agent of Change, and visit the new Spotlight on Learning website today!
