The Landscape of Merging Modalities and Planning for Multi-Access Learning Pathways
Presenter: Dr. Valerie Irvine, University of Victoria

Please note: Due to technical difficulties, the audio in this recording starts at 25 seconds.

In this session, you will learn about the landscape of merging modalities, ranging from its evolution, terminology, to planning for set-up, finances, and pedagogy. Dr. Valerie Irvine coined the term, multi-access learning, almost 20 years ago with support from the Canada Foundation for Innovation and the B.C. Knowledge Development Fund. She has been teaching multi-access for two decades with teaching evaluation scores as high as 5.0/5.0. This session will be infused with findings from a recent learning modality preferences survey and she will highlight its connection to social justice and accessibility. Participants are encouraged to read a background article in the Educause Review.
