Laurence F. Johnson is chief executive officer of the New Media Consortium (NMC), an international consortium of nearly 300 world-class universities, colleges, museums, research centers, and technology companies dedicated to using new technologies to inspire, energize, stimulate, and support learning and creative expression. He is an acknowledged expert on the effective application of new media in many contexts and has worked extensively to build common ground among museums and universities across North America and in more than a dozen other countries. SummaryYour host, Steve Worona, will be joined by Malcolm Brown and Larry Johnson, and the topic will be "The 2009 Horizon Report." Join us for this discussion between the founder and a long-standing advisory board member of the NMC's Horizon Project. As part of this effort, an annual report is produced each year in collaboration with the ELI. Nearly 75,000 copies of the report were distributed in 2008, and over the six years of the project the report has become a common planning tool on campuses. Learn about the process behind the report; the seven major technology trends reflected over and over in the research; and the technologies, challenges, and trends identified in the 2009 report.
