As always, we thank our early bird attendees for helping us pick the program – it is based entirely on the votes (and good taste) of early bird ticket holders.

We’re pleased to announce our first keynote speaker for #PSEWEB 2013, Stewart Foss! Stewart’s keynote will focus on ‘Student Experience Design.” What makes a website good? How can you make it better? What can we learn from the best? Stewart will share his thoughts about how we can raise the bar in higher-ed web design and how we can transition from good user experience design to good student experience design.

Last year, we had seen email missing on the program for year after year and as one of the highest return digital marketing methods, I threw it in the ring.  One of my favourite aspects of the conference is that it ultimately doesn’t matter what I think should be onstage because the early bird ticket holders decide what they want to see. We also had several requests last year for… Read more »
