🌮 What is a TACO?

Have you ever needed quick, personalized guidance on integrating technology in your adult ed programs? OTAN offers Technical Assistance Coaching Opportunities, affectionately called TACOs, to any adult education educator in California. These are short, focused 20–30-minute virtual coaching sessions via Zoom designed to address your tech and digital needs. Up to 4 participants can join to get individualized coaching and guidance.

🌮 What topics could OTAN support with during a TACO?

• Canvas LMS Integration & Setup: Creating courses or modules, Canvas administrator settings, embedding third-party tools (LTI apps) and more.
• Accessibility & Design: Guidance on meeting WCAG 2.2 standards such as formatting pages with accessible headers, alt text, clear contrast, and clear navigation paths.
• Generative AI for Educators: Getting hands-on help using AI tools like MagicSchool, ChatGPT, Copilot, Claude, or others.
• Selecting & Implementing EdTech Tools: Educators looking for quick recommendations on digital apps or software best suited for specific ESL, High School Equivalency (HSE), or CTE lessons.
