Amidst national attainment demands for student completion, swelling enrollments, high attrition that challenges retention efforts, and shifting student expectations about the educational experience - one thing is clear: it is more important than ever to educators to keep students engaged in the process and experience of learning. From a student perspective, the pressures are similarly acute. Success, no matter how you define it, is something that requires collaboration on many levels be it course completion, program completion, transition from one educational stage to another, or securing of employment or post-education.

Dr. Evan Nisonson will explore some of the compelling drivers that influence how students learn while examining the technology decisions that face educators and institutions in order to realize engagement. Specific focus will be placed on illustrations of success stories.
