The last year and a half have flown by. It has been personally and professionally rewarding to have the opportunity to spend my time investigating the course materials revolution. It is not lost on me the unique position I am in and where it has led me. I have had the opportunity to share my work with audiences around the country. However, there are many who have still not seen the research. This is obviously very forward and self-promoting of me, but I wanted to share some key events that I will be speaking/presenting at over the next few months. I will drop links to the events so that if you have not registered and would like to, you can.

Wrap Up

Having the opportunity to share my work and talk with course materials stakeholders from a variety of different organizations and institutions is a privilege I do not take for granted. Engaging with people across higher education whose aim is to help students be more successful in their academic pursuits is inspiring. If you are attending any of these events and we have not met, I look forward to meeting you in person. As always, thanks for checking in and I’ll see you next time.
