Dear Commons Community,

I leave today for Orlando to attend the Annual Online Learning Consortium (formerly Sloan-C) Conference. The program and speakers are first-rate and include a keynote by John Medina (University of Washington School of Medicine) on “How Brains Learn with Technology”.   Below is a welcome and quick overview from Patsy Moskal, the Program Chair.

All of the details about the program are available at the Conference website.

Dear Colleagues,

It is my pleasure to invite you to the 20th Annual Online Learning Consortium International Conference! The past two decades have seen many exciting innovations and changes in online education. This pattern continues today with current innovations in learning analytics, MOOCs, open and mobile learning, and many new and exciting  emerging instructional resources. The annual conference attracts worldwide experts and innovators in online teaching and learning. We would love to have you join us! This year’s tracks have changed slightly from previous years with the addition of a track devoted to Institutional Change and Innovations. We hope you take a look at the updated descriptions and also the sessions scheduled in each of the tracks. For those who can’t join us in beautiful Orlando in October, we hope you can join us virtually! Please join us as we celebrate 20 years of leading the way in online learning!
