This conference is attended by a range of professionals working in the higher education sector:
- IT practitioners and managers
- Teaching and learning technology practitioners and managers
- Librarians and knowledge managers
- Developers of information technologies and services for higher education
Theme for 2011 is: The game has changed
"The game has changed for information technology in higher education. Fundamental shifts in learning and teaching, research, resources, and technology mean we’re not using the same rules or playing fields anymore. According to some leading thinkers, the very survival of the university is on the line if we're not able to adapt.
What game changers do you see in your organisation? What are the new rules and who are the players? What do we need to do to adapt? And what things remain constant, no matter what the external appearances of transformation?"
Early Bird registrations close on 3 March.
