November 7-8, 2024 University of Louisville Event and Conference Center at ShelbyHurst Campus 450 North Whittington Parkway, Louisville, KY 40222
Convergence is the single event that brings together professionals in information technology, academic libraries, online learning, and instructional design from all the public and private colleges and universities in Kentucky and the surrounding states. Sponsored by Kentucky post-secondary institutions and private sector partners, Kentucky Convergence is a conference that emphasizes innovations and best practices in the fastest-growing areas of higher education.
The program committee invites proposals that will engage, educate, and inspire those in attendance. Topics may fall under the categories of technology, pedagogy, process and policy, and design. This year, we are offering three types of sessions:
Presentation sessions are 45-minute breakout sessions based on a formal presentation.
Birds-of-a-Feather sessions are 45-minute facilitated discussions around a topic, and do not require a formal presentation.
The KYCC Idea Fair is a 90-minute poster session-style networking event in the Ballroom on Thursday afternoon, during which presenters can share an idea, a demo, or a project with colleagues in an interactive, casual atmosphere. Idea Fair presenters may wish to show off a process or tool they use, or encourage informal dialog around an idea or topic. Bring your own laptop, visuals, or handouts; posters are not required but can be used. Each presenter will be provided a table to use. We will not supply poster stands.
Presenters and attendees at the Kentucky Convergence Conference will include leaders, innovators, managers, and decision-makers from the information technology, academic libraries, online learning, and instructional design units of colleges and universities from Kentucky and surrounding states.
