As many of you know, I’ve started working for the Wharton School of Business for the past few months. Here in Wharton Computing, we have an entire department, the Learning Lab, dedicated to innovations in technology and education. This year, they’re hosting The Wharton Evolution of Learning Symposium. The price is quite affordable, so I thought I’d pass this along. The people running it are top notch. Feel free to contact me – or the Learning Lab – with any questions you may have. If you are going to attend, be sure to get in touch so we can meet up for a bite to eat! Here are the details:
Whispered about in private conversations among faculty,administrators, and students…
Written about in the Chronicle of Higher Education and the New York Times…
Considered every day by people who work in and care about what’s happening at colleges and universities….people like you.
But now it’s time to get together and talk about it out loud: the need to face and embrace the reality of rethinking the state of higher education.
On May 13, 2009, the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania is sponsoring a half-day, reasonably priced symposium on campus to consider the Evolution of Learning. Join best-selling author Daniel Pink (A Whole New Mind) and a panel of forward-thinking educators for a
discussion of how we can rise to the challenges facing higher education today.
Visit the symposium website for details, registration, and the opportunity to be part of the solution: http://www.wharton.upenn.edu/learningandtechnology.
We hope to see you there!
Sincerely,
Wharton Computing
