Keynote Speaker: Dr. Christopher Dede
Timothy E. Wirth Professor in Learning Technologies
Harvard Graduate School of Education
Chris Dede's fundamental interest is the expanded human capabilities for knowledge creation, sharing, and mastery that emerging technologies enable. His teaching models the use of information technology to distribute and orchestrate learning across space, time, and multiple interactive media. His research spans technology forecasting and assessment, emerging technologies for learning, and leadership in educational innovation. He is currently conducting funded studies to develop and assess learning environments based on modeling and visualization, virtual communities-of-practice, high-bandwidth telemonitoring, and multi-user virtual environments. Dede also is active in policy initiatives, including developing a widely used State Policy Framework for Assessing Educational Technology Implementation. He is co-chair of the Milwaukee Public Schools National Technology Advisory Board and a member of the Boston Public Schools "LINC 2 the Future" Commission. He is also on the International Steering Committee for the Second International Technology in Education Study, spanning 30 countries.
