“Veering Left, Or Practice Doesn’t Always Make Perfect”
Erin Templeton’s talk will discuss best practices for personal, professional, and pedagogical productivity. She will discuss various technological tools such as iAnnotate and Google Drive as well as social media outlets such as Twitter and Pinterest. But more important than specific tools and technologies, Dr. Templeton will also discuss the practice of finding best practices. Where do we look? How do we recognize them? If practice doesn’t necessarily make perfect, what’s the point?

“The Seven Year Itch”
The MOOC is now seven years old. If 2012 was the “Year of the MOOC”, then what happened in 2013 and what will become of the MOOC in 2014? Ken will give us an update on the past year in Massively Open Online Courses and a sense how they are really impacting education and training.
