Nobody knows what the next three-to-five years are going to look like, but skills such as creative thinking, resilience, and digital agility are poised to rise in significance by 2027 — becoming critical indicators of student success.  

Join us to discover how you can help your students develop these essential skills. Professor Justin Hodgson of Indiana University showcased how integrating digital creativity into the classroom can increase student engagement and facilitate dynamic learning experiences. By combining low-stakes activities and high-impact practices that center on digital creativity, you can empower your students to develop the skills and knowledge employers need today and in the future.
