The Summer Institute for Distance Learning and Instructional Technology (SIDLIT) conference (SIDLIT) is an annual event organized by Colleague 2 Colleague (C2C), a professional association of faculty, staff and administrators from the Midwest. K-State is a partner institution of the conference and hosted the event on our Olathe campus last year.
This year marks the 25th anniversay of the conference. IT will be hosted at the University of Kansas Medical Center (KUMC). on Monday through Wednesday, July 29-31. The event can also be attended virtually.
This year’s theme is “Lensing the Past, Zooming In on the Present, Developing Future Passions for Learning.” This conference will explore how past lessons, current challenges and innovations, and future trends can enhance online learning and instructional design.
As the SIDLIT website highlights, “SIDLIT 2024 offers an excellent opportunity to connect with professionals in online learning, educational technology, training and development, and instructional design. Whether you’re a newcomer or a returning participant, you’ll discover valuable insights and resources to support your personal and professional development.”
