Who Should Attend
We invite attendees from all campuses and outreach centers to join us. This event is most suitable for those teaching, learning, supporting, or advising via distance or web-facilitated modalities, such as compressed video, interactive television, web-conference, satellite campus or outreach center, correspondence, or fully online. In other words, anyone involved in the work of technology-enhanced teaching and learning within the University of Maine System will find this conference useful.
You might elect to attend if you are teaching or working in the University of Maine System, and one of the following:
- Full-time faculty
- Adjunct or part-time faculty
- Fully online or distance faculty
- Graduate student with a teaching assignment within UMS
- Academic administration or leadership
- Academic support staff
- Distance logistics support
- Disability or accessibility coordinators
- Library staff
- Instructional, learning, or eLearning designers
- Distance education specialists
- Student support service providers
- Center-based staff (or any UMS staff supporting teaching and learning away from the “campus hub”)
- Instructional content developers
- Staff using Kaltura, Zoom, or Blackboard
- Online training developers
- Academic advisors
The FI Planning Committee and support staff make every effort to make all content and experiences accessible to all from the outset. The university will also make every effort to provide reasonable accommodations to individuals with disabilities upon request.
Certain accommodations may require planning and resources for us to implement, so we ask that individuals needing accommodations submit their request as soon as possible and no later than April 27th.
