General Information
The Campus Technology conferences cover a broad range of technologies used for teaching and
learning, administration, research, and communications on college and university campuses. Our conference reflects a
commitment to this broad coverage with CT 2012 offering a somewhat greater emphasis on technologies that directly support
the teaching and learning mission of the institution.
We are seeking presenters who can offer attendees both a vision of the impact and importance of their topic and concrete,
practical examples of real-world implementations. Please review the guidelines for submissions carefully. You will also see much, but not all of this detailed information as you work through the online
submission form.
If you would like to submit your proposal electronically before reading the additional
session guidelines and details provided below, please click the Begin button.

This year, we are especially seeking proposals for sessions that cover how
education programs and instructional strategies are supported by the latest information and education technologies.
Presentations that fit within the broad topics of learning applications and tools, instructional design,
learning spaces/smart classrooms, digital campus and IT infrastructure and leadership/strategy are of particular interest,
and we are also looking for presenters with expertise in Web 2.0 tools, social software, collaborative environments, and
other technologies applied in higher education environments. Cloud computing topics, particularly sessions that target
higher education institutions as how-to workshops or exemplars are needed.
