Exciting Keynotes:

 

John Lester - (Pathfinder Linden), Operations Director at Linden Lab's new Boston-area office. (the creators of Second Life) He is also the Academic Program Manager, leading the company's efforts to support educators and acting as an evangelist for teaching, academic research, and scientific visualization in Second Life.

Prepare your students or employees for real-world experiences by using Second Life as a simulation!

Symposium - Tuesday, March 24

Topic: "Preparing to Deliver Education in 2015"

 

Learning in 2015 requires a paradigm shift with a different pedagogy, and skills, enabled by technology and a holistic transformation of the process.  This session will bring together experts in various aspects that are working together to prepare California for this leap forward.  The panel will offer insight into components that are being implemented in California Community Colleges.

 

 

A must attend event for Trustees, Chancellors, College Presidents, Superintendents, VPs, CTOs, Faculty and anyone interested in preparing to deliver education effectively in 2015

Symposium - Wednesday, March 25

 

Topic: Baked In - Distance Education Excellence From the Inside Out

 

Rather than teaching skills and best practices via multiple training classes attended by a few faculty, discover ways to build quality into your courses using a 'just-in-time' performance support model.

Spotlight Session - Tuesday, March 24

 

Topic - Teaching Spectacularly with Cell Phones

 

Mobile is the next wave. Cell phones are used to text, video, take assignments, document work, translate, podcast, and interface with Web 2.0.  Teachers and students carry them already; learn how we can adapt to achieve educational goals.

 

 

Have questions, please feel free to contact me.
