JISC

Feedback from previous delegates shows that the conferences have been highly successful. Some brief quotes are given below, followed by some more detailed interviews:

“The conference gave me the opportunity to share with people I would normally never have an opportunity to work with, especially research teams, and to get up-to-the-minute ideas for delivery to today’s students with information on how successful these ideas have been. This has allowed me to stream the very best ideas out to my colleagues with details about where, and how, they can find out more.” (2009 delegate returning for 2010)

“This was my first experience of an online conference and I learnt a vast amount without leaving my desk. Thank you. This is the way to run things in the future with stretched resources.” (2009 delegate)

"Fascinating experience - well worth it from my point of view, as I got lots of good challenges, and much more depth of discussion than would normally be managed at a keynote. Lots to learn, but clearly the beginnings of a great new way of doing conferences." (Previous keynote presenter)

“A very rich and rewarding experience.” (2009 delegate)
