2012 Academic Affairs Summer Meeting



Building the 21st Century University: Tools and Elements
Join us for the AASCU Academic Affairs Summer Meeting, another in a series of conferences focused on institutional transformation.

About the Conference

Derived from insights gained from the Red Balloon Project, the Academic Affairs Summer Meeting will focus on the critical tools and elements that are necessary to create a 21st century institution. We will be examining issues such as: 

  • data analytics (with a special focus on learning analytics); 
  • course redesign such as blended learning courses, collaborative blended learning courses, flipped courses, large lecture redesign (especially in science), and mathematics emporiums; 
  • working with for-profit providers; 
  • analysis and action strategies to identify and address areas of common failure and program bottlenecks
  • new approaches to community engagement
  • models for campus-wide internationalization 

The conference also will have programming to address a number of other critical issues that academic officers and other institutional leaders are confronting such as budget reductions, accreditation, strategic positioning, new faculty roles, and enrollment management.

Provosts may invite anyone from their campus to participate in the Academic Affairs Summer Meeting. In light of this meeting’s program focus, provosts may find it useful to invite institutional research or course design professionals. At the Winter Meeting in San Antonio, we had associate provosts and other senior institutional officers, as well as deans, faculty members, and other institutional leaders.

I hope you’ll join us for this summer conference in San Francisco.
