Hundreds of higher education technology decision makers – including chief information officers and campus IT administrators – will gather in Denver at the Transformational Technology in Higher Education (TTHIED) conference from March 24 – 25, 2016. Attendees will explore the latest digital solutions, discover best practices being employed on campuses and participate in collaborative learning with colleagues and industry leaders.
Formerly Campus Technology Forum, TTHIED will include a variety of keynote and concurrent sessions that feature new and emerging technologies. Program tracks include Leading Campus Transformation, Technology Pedagogy in the Digital Age, Designing a Connected Campus and Technology Solutions.
"New platforms for experiential learning, such as wearable tech, are creating innovative pedagogical opportunities within higher education," said Daniel Gephart, Higher Education Events Manager, LRP Conferences, coordinator of TTHIED. "Why is it vital that higher education leaders follow this rapidly evolving environment? Because campuses can develop and sustain a culture of innovation that accelerates positive change within and beyond their institutions, and TTHIED works to inspire attendees to bring this culture of innovation back to their campuses."
Bryan Alexander, president of Bryan Alexander Consulting, LLC, will open TTHIED 2016 with his keynote "Halfway Through the Tsunami: Higher Education and the Digital Revolution." Alexander will propose answers to the question "How is education changing under the impact of ever-advancing technologies?" by surveying social, economic and policy contexts while examining how education is changing under their impact and exploring leading trend lines for the digital world.
