Featured Keynote Programs

A feature-length session that delves into the research behind urban and rural 1:1 deployments, in particular the effect ubiquitous computing has on traditionally disadvantaged student populations.

A keynote speech on the three central tenets of 21st century learning: access to technology, engaging learning environments and activities, and anticipating the skills our students will need to succeed when they graduate. Appropriate for schools/institutions exploring STEM/STEAM programs, 1:1 computing, ubiquitous technology, or any major technological paradigm shift.

A presentation on the transformative effect iTunes U has had on thousands of students from around the world, as told through the prism of one Introduction to Film class whose members now exceed 50,000. This speech explores the global nature of 21st century education, the value of extra-cultural exploration, and the symmetry among learners from around the globe.

Inspired by my speech at CUNY's prestigious IT Conference, this presentation details the process of launching college 1:1 deployments, including extensive supporting research, a discussion of faculty buy-in, and information on how 1:1 programs contribute to better student outcomes.

Considering a 1:1 deployment? Have you thought about which device you'll go with? How you'll raise the money to buy them? The best ways to manage them? The ways you'll get teachers using them? This session walks administrators through the best and worst practices of 1:1 teachers and administrators, and provides a framework for planning, launching, and assessing a large-scale ubiquitous computing program.
