The Learning and Educational Center recently hosted a two-day virtual conference that showcased a variety of NSU educators presenting a wide array of topics. The theme for the conference was, “Connect, Engage, Inspire,” and it gave NSU faculty an opportunity to share their knowledge and practices with other educators at the University. Presentations covered teaching strategies, technology tools, BEDI practices, student engagement, and more. We are pleased to share a full playlist of all conference presentations.
