Dr. Julie Lytle

e = all things electronic, digital, technology
formation = an act of giving form or shape
learning = an act, process or experience of gaining knowledge or skill
exchange = an act of giving and receiving

This two-day event is designed for educators in Christian settings (directors of religious education, teachers, youth leaders, chaplains, camp counselors, professionals or volunteers) to expand their knowledge of and confidence in technology to nurture spiritual formation.

It will be a real-time opportunity to experience a culture of learning to engage a world in continual change. Tradition will inform imagination. Collaboration will redefine expertise. Through a pre-conference e-survey, participants will identify strengths and challenges presented by technology in their ministry contexts. Onsite, wisdom and quality resources will be exchanged, practiced, and enriched. Expect to explore the dynamic intersection of technology and Christian formation in an age of Web 2.0+, smart phones, apps, devices, interactive software platforms, online gaming, and so much more!

What this event is NOT: a conference for IT developers

What this event IS: a participatory “act” for people committed to a ministry of transformational learning in Christian contexts
