Society looks to higher education as a source of innovation to address major challenges and fuel economic vitality. IT can be a source, catalyst, and supporter of innovation. As the higher education technology association, EDUCAUSE embraces the principle of innovation. EDUCAUSE understands not only the importance of innovation to higher education but also the supporting role that technology can play as a tool for innovation in the learning, discovery, and engagement offered by colleges and universities. Please share your showcases for innovation with us.
