Mohawk College Digital Learning Strategy

After many months of consultations with faculty, students, staff, and higher education experts Mohawk College approved the Digital Learning Strategy which:

• outlines supports our faculty and students will need to evolve towards a future that includes more flexible credentials and delivery modalities.

Digital Fluency for Adopting New Technologies
Every day there seems to be a new system or technology that vies for our attention. The shiniest and newest might win your attention, causing you to ignore the most useful time saving ones. Choosing the easiest or fastest solution might also leave us less adaptable later. In this keynote we will look at some successful strategies for technology adoption, harness the power of those around you, and cultivate digital fluency in yourself and students.
