Registration is now open for NERCOMP's upcoming workshop "Instruction Programs: Trendwatching."

DATE: April 8, 2010
TIME: 9:00 - 3:00 (Coffee and Registration start at 8:00)
PRICE: NERCOMP Members: $130, Non-Members: $255 (includes break service and lunch)
LOCATION: Four Points Sheraton Hotel and Conference Center, Norwood, MA.

DESCRIPTION: This workshop is about some key trends that inform strategic planning for instruction programs: innovations in teaching and learning, in scholarship, and in our networked digital environment. Participants will get up close in three areas: how to think about the technologies available to you when planning for improvements in your instruction program; how to adapt pedagogies that get us beyond sage on the stage, and ways of engaging with significant conversations on innovation. A lightning round, exploring how participants are framing near-term goals of their instruction programs, will address developments and indicators to monitor for anticipating user needs, key disruptive technologies and their implications, significant changes on campus in teaching and learning, and gaps and challenges we face across institutions.
