The Hub’s second annual Resource Retreat was another success! Shout-out to graphic design placement student, John Gray, for designing this year’s calendars. John’s design featured a winter snowscape featuring snow-covered trees and many indigenous Canadian animals that are active in the winter. An additional thanks goes to our TEACH Committee faculty for sharing all of the resources in this year’s calendar!
Below, you’ll find the complete H5P Calendar and a list of all resources shared. Be sure to swing by the Hub to pick up some stickers. ❄️
The Resource Retreat calendar was available in two formats: a digital version on the Hub website and a printed version in the Hub space, packed with custom-made stickers to match. For the first two weeks of December, we shared resources that were shared by faculty and TEACH Committee members.
