SUMMARY:Webinar | What Is the Digital Campus? The Future of Student Engagement  (EDUCAUSE)
DESCRIPTION:The rules of higher ed are changing fast\, and the time has come for colleges and universities to radically change the ways they engage\, collaborate\, and communicate with constituents. \nFrom campus tours to advising\, libraries\, and events\, digital transformation is redefining the concept of physical presence.

Employees today need a front-line communications platform at the ready to communicate information to more audiences\, faster\, using multiple channels\, from the first encounter\, no matter where they are or what device they are using. But migrating from siloed and segmented systems to a single\, more powerful platform is no small task. Join our panel as we discuss this journey and share best practices to help your campus become more digital. \nOutcomes\n\nEvolve and adapt the needs of various student populations\nAdapt and prepare for the changing needs for classroom instruction\nExplore new ways to have a local and virtual campus\nEnsure safety and security\nLeverage omni-channel communications to connect to students via social media\n\nSpeakers:  Sarah Christen | Director IT Infrastructure\, Cornell University \nNaveed Husain | VP\, Vertical Programs\, Public Sector & Education\, Ring Central\, Inc. \nRebecca Joffrey | IT Innovations Office\, Cornell University \nJim Lundy | CEO & Lead Analyst\, Aragon Research

SUMMARY:InteresTED – The Happy Secret to Better Work
DESCRIPTION:Psychologists have long challenged the premise that hard work and success brings one happiness. Although some may truly love what they do for a living\, many of us however do it for a paycheck. The idea that one should work harder in order to be happier\, is backwards thinking according to Psychologist\, Shawn Achor. So\, how can we motivate behavior to increase work productivity? In this TED Talk\, we’ll explore how we can harness happiness to change the lens for which we view the world through\, and bring out optimal productivity in our day-to-day work. \nLearning objectives: \n\nParaphrase principles of Positive Psychology through review and examples.\nIdentify negative effects of Medical School Syndrome by way of discussion.\nThrough presentation\, list examples to train your brain to become more positive.
