SXSW EDU

Thank you for joining us in Austin at SXSWedu 2016! We're humbled to host the community's conversation about innovations in learning and hope what you learned here will fuel impact in your community and beyond. We are reminded this election year that education, like politics, is hyper local. For learning in- novations to spread they must be embraced locally and woven into the fabric of your practice, be it in your classroom, on your campus or within your company. Collectively, we share in common the goals to elevate the teaching profession and enhance its impact to effectively engage and inspire all learners. Only if we all commit to apply what we've learned can we hope to accomplish our fundamental task, to make a real and positive difference. It is our sincere hope and desire that your learnings from SXSWedu will support you making an even greater impact in the lives of the learners you touch. As always, we invite and encourage you to complete our post event survey, to help us continue to improve the SXSWedu experience for all as we move forward, together. Wishing you contin- ued success until we meet again at SXSWedu 2017!
