Lightning Talks

We have created a new type of showcase with the goal of highlighting the interesting things instructors do in their course, whether it be a “wicked, cool assignment” or a fun, in-class activity -- things that other instructors could potentially adapt for their context. There will also be four special Lightning Talks, where participants can experience and engage hands-on with the future of technology-enhanced learning, including virtual reality, machine learning/AI, instrumented classrooms, and Arduinos.

Technologies of the Near Future Lightning Talk

These three lightning talks highlight new technologies that are not yet widely adopted in education. Stop by one of these stations for a hands-on experience during their Lightning Talk.
