Higher education is undergoing rapid changes in the 21st century. The rise of online learning, the increasing diversity of learners, shifting perceptions of higher education, the growing demands of the workplace, the ongoing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, and the ethical implications of technology and artificial intelligence are some of the challenges and opportunities that educators face today. How can we build bridges across disciplines, institutions, cultures, and sectors to navigate these changes and enhance the quality and impact of higher education?

Institutions across the University System of Georgia collect every year to share experiences, learn new strategies, and plan their work for student Momentum for the year ahead. The Momentum Summit VII is an opportunity to review and refine the work institutions have committed to, assess progress, and chart a path forward for building upon success.
This summer, the University System will be offering a New Deans and Department Chairs Workshop at Middle Georgia State University in Macon, Georgia, July 17-18, 2023
The USG Teaching & Learning Conference is back! Join us from March 27-29, 2023, at the Classic Center in downtown Athens, Georgia.
ccg@usg.eduThe 2021 USG Advising Academy will be held virtually on Thursday, September 23, from 9:00 am to noon. Focused on reinforcing an integrated Momentum Approach to the transition to college success, the 2021 Advising Academy convenes campus leaders in advising, enrollment management, and orientation and transition to discuss progress, practices and challenges in supporting students from the inquiry stage through to their transition to careers, professions, or academia
Coming out of the Momentum Summit last winter, it was clear that there was a great deal of ongoing work around academic mindset on individual campuses that I would like to provide some visibility to across the System. To this end, the University System Office is hosting a brief Mindset Check in on Friday, August 27, from 1 to 3 pm.
The check in is open to anyone on campus engaged or interested in Mindset work, so please feel free to spread the word. Participation is limited to 200 (but really, on a Friday afternoon we should be fine), but the session will be recorded for later review.
Over the past four years, the System has made tremendous gains in implementing a Momentum Approach to student success. The past eight months have tested some of this work and underscored its vital role in achieving our goals for increasing the number of Georgians with college degrees and closing gaps in academic achievement.
The overarching goal for the Summit is to support institutional teams to make concrete plans for sustaining gains in student Momentum and address those areas that have been affected by disruption, by reflecting upon the past year’s accomplishments and challenges. The past year has underscored the need for strong support and engagement for students across the institution, reinforcing the value and benefit of the Momentum Approach. Equally, it has exposed a range of ways in which existing and planned work around Purpose, Pathways, and Mindset has been delayed, disrupted or needs adjustments.
