Join the Facebook Community

Connect with other SLI attendees and share resources, tips and fun in the private Facebook group.

This group is a place where you can ask questions, offer ideas, and share resources…before, during, and after the 2020 SLI. We love posts that invite discussion and critical analysis of real-life challenges. We also love posts that are inspiring and invite deep reflection. As a general guideline, please share posts in a way that’s helpful/powerful for others in the group, that ask more than tell, and appreciate human diversity.

Come on over and introduce yourself!

Do I have to pre-register for any of the sessions?
For the most part, “No, you do not need to register”. You have FULL have access to each and every session.

There will be select times (see the schedule) when you will be asked to pre-register for a breakout session based upon interest. You will always have the option to change your mind.

What if I can't make a session? Will they be recorded?
Yes, with a few exceptions, all sessions (including panel presentations) will be recorded. Even the end of day Q&A and topical deep dives will be recorded.

Check the schedule for dates/times of Dr. Bettina Love's and LeDerick Horne's sessions. These will NOT be recorded.

The Wretches and Jabbers movie will also only be available during the SLI event (August 3-6).

Will the PPTs be shared?
For the most part, No. PPTs are used as visual support vs. having tons of content. Further, some presenters won't be using PPTs and/or do not share them with us. We ask that you not take screenshots of presenter PPTs as many contain copyrighted materials.

All this said…we'll convert all sessions into a searchable library entry a few weeks after the live event. If there are slides or other handouts to be shared, you'll find them in the library by session. Click here for a sample of one library entry. This will give you an idea of what is to come.

You can also follow the SLI Padlet for links to key resources shared by our presenters and panelists.
