It’s time again for the Fall Symposium for the SDSU Learning Design and Technology (LDT) program!
The Symposium will be held at SDSU at Instructional Technology Services (ITS) in the Adams Humanities Building. This will be a day filled with presentations and demonstrations of the latest in learning technologies, and networking with others to learn about careers in the field. We're also hoping to tour of some of the cutting edge learning spaces at SDSU (including AR/VR labs and active learning classrooms).
We’re expecting a mix of current students, prospective students, alums of the program, local partners and internship providers.
Among the topics this year:
- Cross realities (XR) and immersive learning,
- Technology for medical education,
- 3D modeling and robotics in K-12,
- Overview of game development platforms,
- Performance improvement consulting,
- Finding success in the training and development job market,
...And more!
This is a great opportunity for online students to meet face to face, for alums to reconnect, and for those curious about the field to learn more. Please pass this along to your friends and colleagues who may be interested in this opportunity to keep abreast of industry trends and learn more about the LDT program.
