• Innovative Practice: A session in which the presenter describes an innovative teaching, learning, and technology practice or program at one or more institutions

Experience It Sessions

ELI will once again offer Experience It sessions, which provide participants the opportunity to gain direct experience with emerging learning practices and technologies. Each session will be repeated so a total of 60 attendees may attend the four different sessions. To make the Experience It sessions' hands-on activities possible, space is limited to 30 people each session and in-person registration for these sessions is required

Poster and Innovation Demonstration Sessions

Informal, drop-in poster and innovation demonstration sessions will be held over all three days of the annual meeting in the Rio Grande Ballroom, allowing attendees to explore member initiatives and research related to the use of technology to advance successful learning on a one-to-one basis.

Learning Innovations at the Annual Meeting (including What's New)

Don't forget to check out learning innovations at this year's annual meeting. Innovation is part of our culture. So is a focus on learning. We previously incorporated activities such as informal learning space demonstrations, enabling hands-on exploration of learning spaces and technologies, as well as podcasting and learning circles—those are back for 2008. But you should also see what's new, like citizen journalism. Take a look and take part in our learning innovations.
