Greensboro College Staffer Will Serve on Editorial Board of the 2020 World Future Forum

GREENSBORO, N.C. – Georgieann Bogdan, director of academic accessibility, will serve as a reviewer and associate editor for the 2020 World Future Forum international conference.

In that role, she will be reviewing abstracts submitted for possible presentation at the conference.

At the 2019 World Future Forum in Chicago, Bogdan gave a presentation on Greensboro College’s progress toward becoming a Universal Design for Learning institution.

Universal Design for Learning seeks to create and use curricula and learning spaces that can accommodate every kind of learning style. It is based on research in the learning sciences, including cognitive neuroscience.

World Future Forum is an international conference that provides a platform for research and discussions of excellence in high school and the transition into higher education and career paths.

Returning to Chicago in 2020, World Future Forum will bring together a diverse group of secondary and post-secondary educators, administrators, academics, and other professionals to enrich their knowledge of preparing students for today’s job market and workforce.

Bogdan holds a B.A. from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro and an M.A. from Wake Forest University. She joined the college staff in 2016.

Greensboro College provides a liberal arts education grounded in the traditions of the United Methodist Church and fosters the intellectual, social, and, spiritual development of all students while supporting their individual needs.

Founded in 1838 and located in downtown Greensboro, the college enrolls about 1,000 students from 29 states and territories, the District of Columbia, and seven foreign countries in its undergraduate liberal-arts program and six master’s degree programs. In addition to rigorous academics and a well-supported Honors program, the school features a 17-sport NCAA Division III athletic program and dozens of service and recreational opportunities.
