As higher education embraces a hybrid future, how can emerging technologies enhance learner engagement, accessibility, and career readiness while promoting digital equity? This interactive workshop explores Powerful Learning Propelled by Technology through the lens of Digital Promise’s AI Literacy Framework and Digital Equity Framework. Through breakout discussions, case studies, and hands-on activities, participants will: reflect on impactful learning experiences and their vision for hybrid instruction, explore AI’s role in instructional design and personalized learning, engage with micro-learning modules and AI tools to address learner variability, and develop actionable next steps for integrating emerging technology into their teaching practices. This session provides practical insights, ethical considerations, and interactive exercises to help educators design inclusive and effective hybrid learning environments that empower all students.
Flipped learning, an approach where students review instructional content independently and complete active learning in class, works well with the hybrid model of instruction. Blending the best of both worlds, online and in-person learning, allows a diverse population of students to augment their learning. In this session, you will discover how EdPuzzle can transform your classroom into an interactive flipped learning space. Learn how to create interactive video lessons, allowing for self-paced learning and a deeper understanding of content.

If you are new to flipped classrooms or want to enhance your craft, this session will offer practical suggestions to leverage EdPuzzle for effective teaching and learning. Come prepared to experience EdPuzzle and join a discussion with colleagues about how you can use flipped learning in your classroom.
