Highlights from Campus Technology's 17th annual summer event

At Campus Technology’s 17th annual summer event, leaders from diverse institutions converged to examine the latest trends in technology emerging on higher education campuses today. During conference sessions, workshops, and exhibits, attendees kicked the virtual tires of immersive learning environments, scrutinized the design of high-tech learning spaces, and sampled exciting new digital media poised to enhance teaching and learning and engage the next generation of students. They learned about the most innovative applications of technology by colleagues from institutions across the country and around the world.

But the conference offered an even deeper level of learning. CT2010 was a place for educators to reflect on the evolving, technology-rich environment in which they work and teach, on their own roles as technology leaders during challenging times, and on technology’s potential to contribute to true revolutionary change in higher education practices.  Click on the links below to read more and view pictures from the event.
