Videos From Conference

This link will take you to a website with videos of the featured presentations at the conference. I highly recommend, "Expect to be Disrupted," even though it is an hour and twenty-seven minutes long. I wasn't as thrilled by some of the presentations by consultants for tech firms, and found the "Grand Debate" uninteresting at best. Neither debater addressed what I would consider the important "In or Out" issues.Those of you interested in service learning, might look at "High Impact Practices." That is often a code phrase for service and community based learning.
