About THE Forum

The Teaching in Higher Education (THE) Forum showcases important developments in the use of technology to enhance teaching and learning, professional development and assessment.  The conference focuses on the many ways that the learning process is being transformed as we enter the new millennium.  As we utilize new technologies to create learning environments, we must focus on the learning process and not on the technology in formulating our strategies.   We must not leave behind our skills of community building in the classroom.  We must recall that the fiber optic cable will not miraculously transform tired and stale pedagogy.   

At the heart of THE Forum are the recognition of excellent teaching, dissemination of successful innovations, and the exploration of critical issues pertaining to the use of technology in higher education.   Come, share with your colleagues, regionally and nationally, what you are doing and learning as you experiment with new ways to use technology in your courses, professional development and assessment of student learning. 

Presentations, demonstrations and/or poster sessions should focus on strategies that change and enhance the teaching and learning process, professional development and assessment.  (See suggested foci below.)  Proposals will be reviewed and selected by a review panel.  Please note that conference organizers may approach proposal writers to request changes in their sessions to better fit THE Forum needs.
