Go Virtual! with MOASH - Webinar Series
Tuesdays 3:30-4:30pm (August 18, 25, and September 1) via Zoom
|
With so many folks transitioning from in-person to virtual work, we figured that some professional development in this area wouldn't go amiss! Check out our free webinar series starting Tuesdays in mid-August - you can attend any or all, whatever's useful to you!
Descriptions for each webinar can be found below. Here are the registration links for each session: |
Working Virtually Best Practices - August 18
If you didn’t know, MOASH doesn’t have an office and staff have been working from home before COVID. While working remotely can have a lot of benefits, there can be challenges that come with it. Join us on this webinar to learn more about best practices for having a virtual office. We’ll share what we learned from having a virtual office and things we’ve changed to adapt to being 100% virtual because of COVID-19. We will discuss best practices for staying on top of work and staying connected as a team as well as tips for things you can do individually to make working from home more manageable.
Adapting Teaching and Presentation Strategies for a Virtual Environment - August 25
With COVID-19, educators of all types - K-12 teachers, university professors, professional trainers and speakers, and more - have been put in a position requiring rapid translation of their material into a virtual format. We honor the struggle, applaud the resilience, and want to share the collective expertise that has been developed over the last few months to meet this challenge. Join us for an hour-long workshop on ways to adapt different learning activities to a virtual format, as well as strategies to engage learners before, during, and after online instruction. (Note: this presentation is broadly designed for anyone delivering educational content in a virtual format, and it will focus on general strategies over how to use particular technologies, LMS, and web applications.)
Adapting Sexual Violence Prevention Education for a Virtual Environment - September 1
Incorporating trauma-informed sexual violence prevention content into health education - consent, bodily autonomy, gender norms, healthy relationships, and everything in between - can be difficult in a classroom on a good day! Translating this material to a virtual format, especially given all the COVID-related barriers both students and educators face, is certainly a challenge we don’t take lightly. You’re not alone! Join us for an hour long workshop on ways to adapt this content to a virtual format, including specific considerations around trauma and confidentiality, as well as strategies to engage learners before, during, and after online instruction.

Reproductive Justice in Sex Education webinar
August 21 from 3:30-5pm via Zoom

We are excited to host this webinar led by Micaela Stevenson - a MOASH Board member, former MY Voice youth advisory council member, and current medical student at the University of Michigan Medical School!
This webinar is open for all but will be directed at sex educators and folx in the community who are interested in integrating reproductive justice into the classroom. We will be discussing what the focus of reproductive justice is, and strategizing how to integrate this focus this coming fall as we work together from home! We will also talk about how to engage queer students and incorporate pleasure-inclusive sex education principles into the classroom to best support students.
