New Orleans: INNOVATE in Full Swing!

Dear Commons Community,

The INNOVATE Conference here in New Orleans is in full swing.  I attended the OLC Leadership Network session yesterday led by Eric Fredericksen and Peter Shea where there was lots of sound advice for planning and strategizing about how to mount online education initiatives.  Last night a group of us had dinner at one of New Orleans fine restuarants, NOLA.  Great food and discussion!

I will be on a panel this afternoon (4:00 pm – Bayside B) on Higher Education’s Digital Future with Patsy Moskal, Mary Niemiec and Karen Swan.  See abstract below.

Stop by!

Picciano,

Panelists:

Patsy Moskal, Associate Director for the Research Initiative for Teaching Effectiveness at the University of Central Florida (UCF)
