RSVP to attend the free August 20th presentation "The Road Ahead for Higher Ed" by Ken Steele, editor of Academica's Top Ten.

Ken Steele's presentation "The Road Ahead for Higher Ed" will provide an unparalleled "big picture" view of emerging trends that are shaping the course of higher education in Canada and around the world, such as:

  • changes in demographic projects;
  • evolving social and political trends;
  • growing economic pressures and budgetary responses from outsourcing to advancement;
  • internationalization; and
  • new approaches to classroom pedagogy.

Steele will also focus on how the internet may change the traditional business model of higher education, with new global competition, open educational resources, and peer-to-peer learning sites.
