Past Events

Thank you to everyone who participated or attended the 4th Annual Teaching and Learning Conference held on March 5 and 6, 2007, at Duquesne University --"Reinventing the Classroom of Today for Tomorrow."

A very special thank you to our keynote speakers--Dr. Tracy Mitrano, Cornell, and Dr. John Moore, Viriginia Tech--who challenged the audience to consider new approaches to emerging technologies and the role of institutions in addressing these new technologies. To view their keynotes, click here.

Also thank you to each presenter who offered attendees a wide range of topics in the presentation or poster sessions. Much discussion of best practices was heard during the two-day conference. To view presentations, please visit our Program area and available links. Presentations will mostly be added by March 30th, 2007.

Finally, without the generous support of each of our sponsoring vendors the conference wouldn't have been the tremendous success that it was. Thank you for your support and for introducing us to new products and resources for teaching and learning.
