This podcast provides educators and students in-depth discussions with thought leaders around computer science, cloud technologies, and software design to help students on their journey to becoming industry ready technology leaders of the future. Let's get started. 00;00;28;21 - 00;00;57;26 Speaker 2 Welcome to Oracle Academy Textured, where we discuss how Oracle Academy prepares this next generation's workforce. I'm your host. Sajeel Shahzad In this episode, I'm joined by Lorilyn Owens, director, innovation Programs and Member Services. We speak about the new Oracle Academy community platform, what it is, and how Oracle Academy members, faculty and ambassadors can use it. 00;00;57;28 - 00;01;00;13 Speaker 2 Welcome, Lorilyn. 00;01;00;16 - 00;01;02;05 Speaker 3 It's nice to see you. 00;01;02;07 - 00;01;15;00 Speaker 2 It's fantastic to have you here as we kick off this exciting chapter of Oracle Academy. Can you give me a bit about your background and your role at Oracle? 00;01;15;02 - 00;01;45;23 Speaker 3 Sure. Thank you for having me, Sajeel. So in my role as director of Oracle Academy Innovation Programs and Member Services, I oversee many of the programs and services that help our faculty members innovate in their teaching and get the most out of their membership. Our team is responsible for curating Oracle Academy program benefits, promoting member success, deepening member engagement, and supporting members throughout their membership lifecycle. 00;01;45;25 - 00;02;18;10 Speaker 3 One of the favorite things that we get to do is to share our member success stories. I'm passionate about empowering educators and students to thrive in this ever evolving tech landscape. I love seeing how innovative teaching and collaboration can truly transform learning experiences and help students gain real world skills. Gosh, I spent over the last 25 years working at the intersection of technology and education. 00;02;18;12 - 00;02;54;08 Speaker 3 Whether that's developing and rolling out new learning initiatives or supporting faculty communities globally. But before joining Oracle Academy, I worked in human resources. I've worked in Oracle Consulting and also in Oracle support. All of that taught me the value of collaboration, connection, community building and helping the next generation of learners be ready. One of my treasured memories is from a few years ago, when we published a video celebrating the 25th anniversary of Oracle Academy. 00;02;54;10 - 00;03;31;09 Speaker 3 We've been around for almost 30 years now, but when we celebrated the 25th, I just loved seeing faculty members from different countries share their Oracle Academy stories in their own words. That was special. It really brought home the global impact we could have when we work together. I am just constantly inspired by the dedication and creativity I see in our Oracle Academy members, and I'm always eager to learn from their experiences and support their work in any way that I can. 00;03;31;11 - 00;03;41;25 Speaker 2 Starting to start? What is the Oracle Academy community and what makes it distinct from other forms of communications? 00;03;41;27 - 00;04;13;04 Speaker 3 The Oracle Academy community is really special because it's not just another online forum or email list. It's a dedicated space where Oracle Academy faculty and ambassadors can connect, collaborate, and share ideas. It's tailored specifically for those who teach with Oracle Technologies. So the conversations are relevant and everyone understands the unique challenges and opportunities our educators face in the classroom. 00;04;13;07 - 00;04;42;27 Speaker 3 So, unlike more general platforms, everything here is focused on helping educators grow and support each other with resources and advice they can use. It's a curated, secure environment where participants can discuss best practices, get support, and collaborate on projects with peers who share a passion for helping to advance student technology, education and skills. 00;04;43;00 - 00;04;56;09 Speaker 2 Interesting up. Could you describe the unique ...
