Step into the Future of Education

Step into the future of education and ignite your passion for teaching! Join us at the "Teachers of Tomorrow" Higher Education Symposium, where innovative educational technologies and groundbreaking pedagogical strategies converge to redefine teacher preparation. The Pennsylvania Association for Educational Communications and Technology (PAECT) in partnership with Saint Vincent College Education Department invites proposals for the inaugural year of our Higher Education Symposium. This year’s theme, "Teachers of Tomorrow," is dedicated to exploring transformative practices and critical perspectives that revolutionize teacher preparation. With an emphasis on innovative educational technologies, this symposium seeks to engage pre-service teachers, graduate education students, and teacher preparation faculty in reflective dialogue, research-driven sessions, and interactive discussions that collectively transform the future of education. Whether you are a pre-service teacher eager to share fresh ideas, a graduate education student presenting emerging research, or a higher education professor ready to showcase cutting-edge work, this symposium offers a premier platform to present your work, gain professional visibility, and influence the next generation of educators.


Symposium Background and Focus

Teacher preparation programs are evolving amid rapid technological advances and shifting societal needs. Future educators must excel not only in mastering content but also in incorporating digital tools that enhance learning outcomes. This symposium is designed to:

● Stimulate critical inquiry into innovative teaching methods enriched by educational technologies.

● Share research-based practices and creative approaches that address the challenges of modern classrooms.

● Foster collaborative partnerships among higher education institutions, K–12 schools, and technology innovators to elevate teacher education.

PAECT is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization.
