START DATE: 04/29/2021

Start Time:6:30 PM EDT

Duration:90 minutes


  AGENDA


    Do online learning environments have the power to foster the discussions and reflexions that are so urgently needed to create an equitable society, and dismantle racist systems? Are EdTech tools going to make college and universities permanently virtual, or is there an opportunity to transform post-secondary institutions so that they are more accessible and equitable? What does it mean to level the playing field for all students?

This masterclass, presented by Top Hat, is going to be a powerful discussion on how EdTech is charting a new path for post-secondary education. It will also make room for frank assessments about the limitations of these technologies, and challenges that lay ahead.

Are you:
A student or education professional who is curious about what your future will look like?
An EdTech enthusiast or professional looking to understand the opportunities and challenges that the industry faces?
A Black professional looking to meet hundreds of industry peers?

Then join us! This Masterclass is for you
