What if your next faculty training felt less like a workshop and more like a game show? This session shares how we did exactly that, along with a few lessons learned.
The instructional design team at Oregon State University designed and ran an Accessibility Family Feud to help faculty navigate digital accessibility requirements under new federal guidelines. We wanted to know what that work actually looks like on the ground, so we surveyed 100 faculty and staff members, coded their responses, and built a game based on the real data. Two faculty teams competed in a face-off style while the audience played along at their tables. Teaching moments between rounds connected game answers back to WCAG standards and practical tools.
The session was called one of the most entertaining ever held at our annual faculty forum, and faculty participants have since reached out to say how much fun they had.
Attendees will leave with a replicable model: the survey-to-game-board pipeline, facilitation roles, tech setup, and lessons we learned along the way.
