The Experiential Learning Development and Recognition team is excited to share that Corey Wood, our part-time staff member for the past year, has kindly agreed to present a final showcase about two key projects she has spearheaded during our time with us. These topics may be of interest to the larger faculty and staff community, so we are opening up the invitation to anyone who would like to attend!

From 11 am -11:30 am, Corey will be joined by Lilli Porter from the Office of Quality Assurance to share about their incredible achievements with launching the Student Research Network Discord community, which has now grown to almost 500 students! Hear more about what a Discord community is as well as Corey and Lilli’s successes and challenges with launching this space and keeping students engaged year-round.

From 11:30 am-12 pm, Corey will be discussing an overview of the experiential learning accessibility project, which included completing a literature review, key informant interviews with campus partners, and facilitating student focus groups. Corey will also be compiling all of her findings into a resource with recommendations for improving accessibility in experiential learning at U of G.
