Resources

Pre-recorded Sessions

- This session will go over how to develop a language inventory through google spreadsheet that is able to integrate into an app development program that allows tribes/programs to house their own language materials. This inventory will also be helpful in material resource development overall. In this session, we will also cover how to develop a hyper-doc to create student paced learning cycles and utilizing add-ons and extensions to create interactive activities and materials.

- This session builds upon Part 1 and will go over how to create a highly interactive Google site for your class and different types of integrations that are available for the site. This will include eBooks, interactive slides, drag and drops, and much more. Lastly, we will review how to develop digital worksheets (that could also be printable) to create interactive language experiences for any learner and could also go towards developing a language workbook.

- Presenter: Cree Whelshula and Melodi Wynne, PhD
  This topic will include a short presentation on awareness about intellectual property and what ANA has seen among its language grantees. It will also cover the importance of contract wording. A listening session where the attendees will discuss and share their own experiences, biggest concerns, and ask questions.
