Over the past year new terminology and matured technologies have emerged in the Distance Education field. We were introduced to MOOC’s (Massive Open Online Courses), we witnessed enhanced collaborative software, dynamic digital repositories, and shrinking mobile devices capable of doing online course work. There have also been enhancements to assessment models along with different learning analytics and lastly some of us flipped our classrooms.
We would like to have Pace faculty present on what new or enhanced pedagogies they are incorporating into their teaching and that embrace the changing dynamics. Please submit a short overview of what you would like to present and in the overview please demonstrate that your session will be interactive. Groups of faculty can present as a panel. Please send your proposal to jstenerson@pace.edu by Friday, February 15, 2013.
Anthony Picciano, Ph.D.
Keynote – “Blended Learning Meets MOOC’s: Education’s Digital Future”

Hello, Is the call for speakers limited to Pace faculty? I have couple of topics that may be good fits.
Best Regards,
