Higher Education Technology Conference (HETC) 2015

Higher Education Leaders need to be aware of the changing educational landscape, which includes societal shifts in technology use, advances in educational technology, and a new type of learner.
Leaders today must establish a vision and implement a strategic process that creates a teaching and learning culture that provides students with essential employability skills, and other skill sets - creativity, communication, collaboration, critical thinking, problem-solving, technology proficiency, and global awareness -commonly referred to as 21st century skills.
These skills and processes should be at the heart of every decision a leaders makes and are key to providing students with the tools to succeed in jobs that have not yet been created. Consistent innovation, effective integration of technology, meaningful professional development, connecting beyond the wall of a brick-and-mortar building, and an open mind are all mandatory duties of a leader in the digital age.
We have seen that most of the college and university leaders and administrators don’t have connections with local administrators and don’t have a lot of opportunities to connect and collaborate with them.
With an aim to create a platform for educational leaders to discover, learn, utilize and share the best ways technology can help improve learning, teaching and leading in the 21st century, EdTechReview announces “Higher Education Technology Conference (HETC) 2015" to be held on 28th February 2015 at Hotel “Ambience, Gurgaon”.
The conference has been specially designed for higher ed administrators, leaders, influencers and technology decision makers from colleges and universities. The event is expected to be attended by over 150 dynamic higher education leaders, decision makers and influencers from across India.
“The driving question we should be asking today is how we should use the technology that is available to us to improve what we do instead of why we should use it to improve what we do." – Utkarsh Lokesh, CEO, EdTechReview.
Through HETC, higher education leaders would be able to
• Take advantage of a great resource to de-isolate themselves;
• Identify obstacles to change and specific solutions to overcome them in order to transform colleges and universities in the digital age.
• Connect with a vast network of educators and thought leaders;.
• Utilize practical strategies from practicing college and university leaders that will provide a context for digital leadership in action.
The one day conference will have an array of sessions, panel discussions and case study presentations on the effective use of educational technology and best practices for 21st century education.
