The History of the Fort Wayne Teaching Conference

The Fort Wayne Teaching Conference, informally known as the “Area Deans’ Conference”, began in 1998. The Academic Deans of seven area colleges and universities had begun meeting a few times a year to share information about issues that affected them all, irrespective of differences in mission, size, or philosophy. The growing need to understand and use instructional technology led to a decision to sponsor a conference at which faculty from their institutions could share their work. The 1998 Teaching and Technology Conference, held on the Fort Wayne Ivy Tech campus, was so successful that the conference became an annual event. Since 1999 it has been held on the IPFW campus.

The new web site has been created to make information about the Fort Wayne Teaching Conference more readily accessible to faculty throughout the area.
