New Zealand Trip - March 2012

At the end of March I had the amazing opportunity to travel with a delegation from Mount Royal University to New Zealand, which I made sure to capture via photos and videos. The purpose of our visit was to establish Education student exchanges and faculty research partnerships with the New Zealand institutions on the North Island such as Unitec in Auckland, Wintec in Hamilton, and Massey University in Palmerston North.  We traveled by van from Auckland to Palmerston North to visit each of these institutions and we were very fortunate to enjoy some wonderful late summer weather.

While at Massey University, Jim Zimmer and I also facilitated a session on Student Engagement and Blended Learning that appears to have been well received based on the University news article that was written about our visit.
