Making Connections at BCNET's 2007 Conference

   
Each year BCNET brings together the research and higher education community at our annual conference, held at SFU Harbour Centre, to learn and share ideas to enhance teaching, learning and research through technology. This year’s conference proved to be better than ever. It was a jam packed two days with over 500 attendees, 30 sessions, 12 student poster sessions, 6 tracks, 16 exhibitors and an excellent line-up of speakers.
   
Find out what our conference attendees had to say…..

“A fantastic array of program tracks and great speakers.”

“The conference provided me with an opportunity to network with colleagues from many different institutions.”

"Seriously, I learned new things, talked to some great people and made good professional connections.”

“I found the interactive panels to be very useful for sharing and learning new ideas.”

“I know this is a technology conference, but I appreciated that many of the sessions were not too technically difficult and not all about networks.””

“Provide more content on P2P file sharing and things that average citizens do!”

“Great food!”

“The learning technologies track was great, and I learned some very practical and useful information that I can apply to the classroom.”

“It would be great to have more time between presentations and more interactive technology demonstrations.”

“I would like to see more arts and cultural groups using advanced networks.”
