Join our Virtual Discussion for School Leaders The Root Cause of Post-Pandemic School Challenges: Student Brains Have Changed! Low academic performance. Unprecedented behavior challenges. Teacher frustration and high attrition. These are realities for many schools across the country. Researchers explored data on how students think and learn from before, during, and after the Pandemic to understand why students and educators are experiencing these challenges. Data from 40,000 students shows there are dramatic declines in some skills, most notably memory (remembering what you learned so you can use it later) and flexible thinking (how you take feedback and adapt to it). These findings suggest there can be very impactful instructional changes that will help instruction.The webinars will be interactive group meetings with plenty of time for Q&A, discussion, and sharing of best practices. Webinar content will be the same for each session.Select the Webinar that works for you!Please join us for an interactive discussion on the day and time that works best for your schedule.

With priorities in higher education shifting, join Lisa Barricella, Head of Acquisitions, E-Resources, & Conservation at East Carolina University, Jeanne Hoover, Head of Scholarly Communication at East Carolina University, Maggie Z. Saponaro, Director of Collection Development Strategies at the University of Maryland Libraries, and Kapil Vasudev, Collection Development Strategies Librarian at University of Maryland Libraries, for an engaging and informative discussion about how academic libraries can partner with vendors to help meet institutional goals.Whether it’s adapting to changing student demographics, maintaining careful stewardship of budgets, equipping students for the workforce, or managing shifting research priorities, libraries need to align with both institutional and library strategic missions – beyond the acquisition of content.As well as insights from the panelists, the session will offer actionable advice for libraries to navigate – and indeed take the lead – on partnering outside the library to adapt to changes in institutional priorities. Speakers: Lisa Barricella - Head of Acquisitions, E-Resources, & Conservation, Academic Library Services, East Carolina University; Jeanne Hoover - Head of Scholarly Communication, Academic Library Services, East Carolina University; Maggie Z.

With the Australian Universities Accord and other major equity initiatives in Australia and New Zealand, there appears to be a new momentum towards ensuring enhanced equity and participation across the sector. However, despite the flurry of activity, equity targets remain difficult to reach. Hence, CAULLT invited key equity practitioners to answer the question on whether our actions can actually have an impact and how we can measure impacts of our activities.Enabling pedagogy offers insight into how we can better support equity in Australasian higher education. Jennifer will outline the ADEPT framework (Stokes, 2023) and consider how enabling pedagogy fosters impactful learning. She will discuss how we can build upon research from the enabling sector to embed evidence-based approaches, which encourage transformative outcomes for students and universities. What really works in improving higher education access and success for under-served students? Despite decades of research, relatively little effort has gone into empirically testing what interventions work, and embedding an evaluative mindset within the right people, and units, in our universities. The Trials and Evaluations Program at Australian Centre for Student Equity and Success was established to address these needs. Staff from ACSES will outline how they can assist universities in this regard.Presenters: Jennifer Stokes (University of South Australia), Patrick Broman (Australian Centre for Student Equity and Success, Curtin University), Dr. Tim Pitman, and Dr. Patricia Vermillion Peirce, CE.
