Many colleges and universities are seeking ways to foster and sustain innovation, particularly in teaching and learning, in an era of severe financial limitations. Through the Top Teaching and Learning Challenges project (http://www.educause.edu/eli/challenges), the EDUCAUSE community has begun sharing various strategies and potential solutions to address the issue, five of which have been selected for this practical session. Panelists will present an overview of their programs, identified stakeholders, outcomes, and budget information (if applicable), to be followed by an opportunity for participants to review the solutions and strategies with each presenter in a small group.

This session is part of the EDUCAUSE 2009 Online conference, being sponsored locally by LIS.
