Session 4: Creating Active Engagement | Caroline Olfert, CVSSD

What happens when we take our classroom course and throw it online? For many of us, we’ll end up with disengaged participants and online fatigue. During this workshop, we’ll use foundational brain-based learning principles to explore ways to take classroom content and morph it into interactive, engaging material that our participants will remember. The skills discussed in this session apply to in-person sessions as well.

Session 5:  Beyond the Template: Questions and Review | Emily Hall, E+M Creative

Now that you have spent time planning out your presentation outline and visuals, you’ve probably hit a stumbling block or two. This Questions + Review session is structured to give you the opportunity to ask questions that came up as you worked through your content creation using the tools learned in the first Beyond the Template session. As time allows, you’ll have the opportunity to receive live feedback from Emily on which elements of your presentation draft are successful, strategies to improve elements that are not, and in specific areas that you are concerned about.

Session 5 Evaluation

Session 6: Human Trafficking Imagery: How What You See Affects What You Do | Camerron Resener, Colorado Department of Public Safety

Human trafficking imagery and language shape the way that we connect with survivors of human trafficking. It also forms the beliefs, biases, and misinformation that the public holds. This session will overview recent research and best practices about how we talk about human trafficking and what images we use to build awareness.

The Curriculum

Understanding and Addressing Sex Trafficking in Our Community

This new, Oregon-specific introductory human trafficking curriculum builds awareness and gives community groups and service providers specific calls to action.

The curriculum includes stories from trafficking survivors through videos from The Life Story » to highlight the risks, vulnerabilities, and impact of sex trafficking.

You’ll customize the curriculum based on your community’s efforts, the requesting audience, and the delivery method (in-person versus virtual).

For access to the facilitator’s guide, slide deck, and handouts, please contact Letetia Wilson. Please note that you will need to have a Workday Learning account and taken part in the Train-the-Trainer series to access these materials.

Participants should receive a hard copy of the facilitator’s guide by September 8th.
