Executive Director, Next Generation Learning Challenges
EDUCAUSE
On October 11, 2010, EDUCAUSE, in collaboration with the League for Innovation in the Community College, the International Association of K-12 Online Learning (iNACOL), and the Council of Chief State School Officers (CCSSO) announced up to $20 million in funding for campuses, consortia, organizations, and government agencies as part of the first wave of grants for Next Generation Learning Challenges (NGLC). NGLC is a new effort to identify and scale technology-enabled approaches that dramatically improve college readiness and completion, particularly for low-income young adults. In this interactive session, attendees can learn more about NGLC, including future grant opportunities, and participate in an open dialogue with initiative staff.
