MCAPD’s eighth annual conference focuses on how faculty are reconsidering instructional and assessment approaches to reflect the diverse and emerging needs of today's students. Effective pedagogical practice intersecting with powerful supporting technologies as well as advocacy for encouraging student collaboration and problem-solving will all contribute to this dynamic professional development event.

The conference is attended by over 400 professionals in education including adjunct, full-time and administrative leaders. Proposals for sessions that incorporate the evolution of learning in the 21st Century through technology integration or re-considered pedagogical approaches are welcome.
