Conference theme
Recent European and national policy reports have identified the enabling and
transformative role of technology in supporting learning over the medium term at
individual, institutional and sectoral levels. At EdTech2015 we invite participants to
consider the efficacy of these policies; to explore how they can be operationalised in
practice; and highlight the challenges, opportunities and possibilities for learning in an
ever changing Irish and international landscape.
Helping to inform this discussion will be the publication of the Horizon Report for Higher
Education in Ireland which will be launched to coincide with EdTech2015 by New
Media Consortium CEO (and EdTech2015 keynote) Prof. Larry Johnson.
We look forward to your participation at EdTech2015 as we look Beyond the Horizon:
Policy, Practice and Possibilities at the University of Limerick from May 28-29 2015.
