The 2008 UNC Teaching and Learning with Technology Conference will be held at the Hilton North Raleigh on March 12-14, 2008. Mix It Up! Creative Combinations for Learning in North Carolina is the 2008 conference theme.
This annual conference, held since 2000, provides a statewide forum to network and exchange information about the effective use of technology for teaching and learning (TLT). The term TLT refers to teaching methods and learning environments that incorporate instructional and library-based technologies, whether face-to-face or online. The conference emphasizes timely topics of particular interest to UNC campuses from effective current practices to emerging technologies. Presentations might include:
- collaborative efforts to accomplish TLT initiatives
- instructional resources, approaches, and outcomes
- technological, pedagogical, library, and administrative policies and support issues
- research, assessment, evaluation, and critical analyses to increase understanding of TLT practices
- quality assurance, student retention, efficiency, and effectiveness of TLT efforts
- current UNC initiatives, such as The University of North Carolina Online, partnerships among institutions (e.g. 2+2 activities, Learn and Earn), and Course Redesign.
Conference registration will be available late Fall 2007. All presenters and co-presenters who attend must pay the appropriate registration fees.
- Full conference: $175 ($255 non-UNC)
- Any one day: $95 ($150 non-UNC)
