Presentation Title:

REimagine Learning: The Device is just the Beginning

Synopsis:

It's not the technology itself that holds the power to engage students and transform learning--but the opportunities technology creates for anywhere, any time learning, collaboration, and community.

Mobile learning and BYO programs extend the classroom and expand learning opportunities, but what about safety, management and increasing engagement? IT is often tasked with managing devices on a large scale as educators are faced with learning to effectively integrate technology and curriculum.

Join us for this fun, fast-paced, collaborative session that will give you real tools for management solutions and ways to use technology in new and transformative ways for safe, mobile, and collaborative learning.
