What are the new challenges and opportunities associated with digital literacy?  What are the methods and ways we have to assess the effectiveness of our innovations, practices, and programs?  What are best practices in the emerging field of learning analytics?  Are social media and social networking living up to their potential to accelerate our progress toward active learning engagements?
