With representatives from most of the UNC System institutions, themes ranged from campus implementation to course design strategies.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The day opened with a warm welcome delivered by UNC Charlotte\u2019s Dr. Garvey Pike, Director of the Center for Teaching and Learning. He used the city of Charlotte\u2019s recent tremendous growth as a metaphor for the Summit.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Birds of a Feather kicked off the sessions, allowing members to gather and discuss, in an unconference format, issues at their respective institutions. This was followed by two breakout sessions of five sets of presentations each, demonstrating the wealth of knowledge and interest in a variety of topics related to Quality Matters. During lunch, participants were treated to a keynote by Mr. Steve Kaufman, Quality Matters Ohio Consortium, detailing the success of Ohio\u2019s programs. Highlights included the inter-institutional bartering system and incentives created to foster state-wide collaboration.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Recorded archive of keynote: <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/tinyurl.com\/UNCSystem-QMSummit2020-Keynote\"><b>https:\/\/tinyurl.com\/UNCSystem-QMSummit2020-Keynote<\/b><\/a> <span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">After lunch, an additional breakout session offered another six presentations.
