We invite you to join us for this two-session professional development program designed to support CALL language faculty as they transition to the new learning management system, Lamakū, with an emphasis on language courses. The program consists of two interactive sessions:

  • Session 1 (3/6/2025): A guided demonstration on creating a sandbox course with one of the existing templates, along with an overview of essential features and functions for language teaching.
  • Session 2 (3/13/2025): An open consultation session where you can work on your Lamakū sandbox course and get your questions answered in real-time.

This workshop is designed to help you gain essential knowledge to get started with building a course in Lamakū, and provide you with the time, practice, and support to explore and experiment with features of functions in Lamakū that are particularly related to language teaching.

REGISTER HERE (@hawaii.edu required)

Facilitator: Bryan Keith, Media Design Specialist, UH Mānoa, Center for Language & Technology

Session 1:  April 8 (Tues), 2:30pm – 3:30pm HST

  • Discuss design principles and design tools and troubleshoot web portfolio problem-areas

Sessions will be in-person: Moore Hall 153A, UH Mānoa

Description: Creating a web portfolio can be a daunting task. Hours can be lost staring at an empty page considering how to begin creating something from nothing. In this Demos & Discussions session, we’ll tackle this problem head-on by considering intentionality, design principles, and utilizing the toolset provided to us through Google Sites. This workshop will guide participants through the early stages of web portfolio creation and leave them with the skill set and knowledge to both finish and upkeep their website on their own.

Important Notes:

  • Sessions will NOT be recorded due to the nature of these hands-on workshops.
  • Participants must bring their own laptop to follow along.
