Session 8710: “Presentation is everything! Ways to engage your students in an effective way”
Wed. Mar 16 2:00 – 3:00 PM PDT Room 615-617
It is becoming increasingly difficult for educational institutions to gain and hold student’s attention when providing information, and more challenging to obtain the required responses. Influencing this challenge is the way students are approached and how the information is presented. Inholland University of Applied Sciences will provide several examples of processes adapted to make the presentation of data and information clearer and more effective for both students and employees. The demos and examples mainly focus on PeopleSoft Campus Solutions but offer other apps such as chatbots where necessary. This session is part of the Professional Development Pathway.

When you have timely, accurate and easily presentable data in hand, you can be guaranteed of better outreach and more effective service to your students.
