Session Description
This is the third and final workshop in the series. Christine Miller will take you through some examples of how she supports student learning with image hotspots, flashcards, image sliders and more. Do not worry if you missed the first or second (or both) workshops; Christine will be presenting how she uses interactive activities in Pressbooks with her OER work.
