Greetings from the League for Innovations Conference where there are between 1500 and (?) community college educators.(The registration desk was waiting for final numbers at last report.)
Today's keynote was a very well laid out presentation by Irwin Kirsch from ETS on three trends that are affecting community colleges: the inadequacy of numeracy and textual literacies in the overall American population, our changing demographics, and the demands that knowledgework and global competition demand.
When this conference is over, all major presentations (at the least) will be available online at League IStream.
CMC is a League member college, so CMC can get free personal accounts to
view both video and publications in digital formats.
To get your account, go to the link in this post, click on Colorado Mountain College as your home institution, then enter you email and password and submit to gain access to these terrific resources.
Best,
Alice
