WCET Leadership Summit: Digital Learning Content Summit
On May 9th and 10th, 2013, the WICHE Cooperative for Educational Technologies (WCET) held conversation with senior decision-makers and forward-thinking commercial and government partners about the evolving digital learning content landscape. From ebooks and etexts to open education resources and self-generated content produced by faculty and students, the WCET Leadership Summit helped campus leaders address the new opportunities and challenges that today's digital learning content creation, publication, maintenance and adoption brings to academic stakeholders across the higher education landscape.
The Summit featured presentations about:
- Successful examples of campus adoption of a digital content strategy.
- Views from industry leaders as to expected developments in the next 2-4 years.
- Expert-led, interactive discussions about implications for students, faculty, research, bookstore operations, and more.
- Emerging national initiatives that may impact digital content decisions.
