More of What Our Members Say

"The ELI Annual Meeting is the one event I really look forward to each year. It is the place where I go to connect with friends and colleagues all while learning about what is really happening in teaching and learning with technology. It is a standing goal of mine to be a part of the event in as many ways as I can."

Cole W. Camplese
Director, Education Technology Services
Penn State

"I never miss the ELI Annual Meeting, and I always send an interdisciplinary mix of IT staff members, faculty, and librarians. The smaller size of the meeting contributes to a rich interaction and exchange of ideas both inside and outside of sessions. Our contingent always returns to campus with concrete strategies and action plans on how to move forward on a variety of teaching and learning initiatives."

Susan Metros
Deputy CIO and Associate Vice Provost
for Technology-Enhanced Learning
The University of Southern California

"ELI membership has been invaluable to our faculty members and staff in promoting best practices using emerging technologies. ELI's focus on student success aligns with Montgomery County Community College's most significant strategic initiative. ELI publications such as the 7 Things series and the Horizon Report are two of the many ELI publications used by our Information Technology All-College Committee in their research, planning, and implementation of new technologies and strategies that enhance learning.
