Preparing for Tomorrow’s World

Abstract**:

Which emerging technologies are likely to enhance working practices and the student experience, and which can we afford to ignore? How do we distinguish between invention, innovation and improvement?

Brian Kelly will lead discussions on key development areas and how we can respond to them. You will have the opportunity to use a methodology, which has been used by Cetis and UKOLN to ensure that institutions can gather evidence on new technologies in a systematic way, identify trends and plan for the future.
