Jeffrey Brown 3.4
Description:
Educational institutions teaching web related disciplines have recently come into focus. Many schools' programs are outdated, teaching software specific non standards based curriculum. The web job market has transformed into many sub-facets so quickly that many institutions hoping to update don't know where to begin. There are many things already happening to facilitate growth in education in regard to the web arena, however, there are some major hurdles that need addressed as well. Jeffrey will explain some great things already in motion and where help is needed, in addition to how can you help to implement change. All professionals, educators and non, have a vested interest in our future.

Jeff, I really enjoyed this presentation. You outlined the challenges of teaching the web in our current educational system, eloquently explained the WaSP interact curriculum, and did it all with style. You are a fantastic speaker and very passionate, l look forward to the next time I see you speak!
I have really enjoyed your presentation about Webucation last night. I totally agree that it is the responsibility of everyone teaching, working, and learning Web Development to communicate with others to help them understand what this is about with hope that one day (soon) this profession will be structured in most universities as a 4 year education program and give the professionals in this field the recognition we deserve.
