Share your expertise and great ideas at the 2009 workshop!
Blended learning is sweeping higher education and fast becoming a
strategy for institutional and student success. How are you using
blended learning? Come tell us.

CALL FOR “GREAT IDEA” PRESENTATIONS
A “Great Idea” presentation should be an effective business or
instructional practice that you’ve used in your blended efforts. We’re
looking for business strategies institutions incorporate for the
successful implementation of a blended learning initiative and
instructional strategies that provide models for incorporating online
and f2f teaching, including the instructional design process,
principles and guidelines.

”Great Idea” presentations will occur throughout the two days during
the plenary sessions. Presenters will have ten minutes and be limited
to three slides.  “Great Idea” presenters will receive a 20% discount
on registration.

CALL FOR POSTER SESSIONS
Poster sessions provide an opportunity to share an emerging practice or
pedagogical model. Sessions may present a report of a research study, a
problem solving solution, a unique organizational structure, or a
course outline that may be of interest to the serials community.

Posters will be on display during the Networking Reception on Monday,
April 27. Presenters should be available to discuss their topics during
the two-hour reception. Poster presenters will receive a 20% discount
off the workshop registration fee.
