Future of Education Online Conference

   Posted by: Jeffrey    in Learning & Teaching, Technology

I am looking forward to attending George Siemens' newest project that he so graciiously opens and supports to the larger world of education, The Future of Education Online Conference.

The site itself describes this as:

The Future of Education is an online conference exploring trends impacting education - K-12, higher education, and corporation training.

An international panel of leading thinkers and visionaries will present on topics such as knowledge and authority, technology and art, and complexity science. Daily live discussions (which will be recorded) will be held June 4 - 8. Keynote presenters are listed below. In addition to daily keynote presentations, a series of excellent 20 - 30 minute presentations will address how various experts perceive tomorrow’s education system and processes. View the Schedule of Presentations for correct times.

To extend the live presentations, we will hold ongoing discussion in Moodle - allowing conference attendees to participate actively in the conference.

For anybody who is interested in this workshop, as well as experiencing the Moodle platform, I can only encourage you to look into this. I know I am already beginning to enjoy it.
