The Villanova University Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, the Villanova Center for Advancement of Sustainability in Engineering, the IEEE Power and Energy Society, and the IEEE Industrial Applications Society invite you to join us for a symposium: "The Greening of the Electric Grid: How Will It Affect You."

Speakers:

Audrey Zibelman – Viridity Energy
Wayne Gardner – PA Public Utility Commission
Glenn Pritchard – PECO
John Battaglini – International Battery
Joseph Moran – Kema Consulting
Dagmar Niebur – National Science Foundation and Drexel University

The use of small-scale, distributed energy resources on the grid—including wind farms, solar parks, biomass plants, customer-owned generation, smart buildings, and energy storage—is transforming the nation’s electrical network. Furthermore, renewable energy credits, new state and federal energy and environmental policies, and the increased use of demand response are having an impact on the trading of electrical energy and the cost of supply. Future developments such as smart metering and smart appliances will convert the grid into an electrical version of the Internet. This symposium will inform you about the many dimensions of this transformation in the electrical grid system and the opportunities that they will create.

Refreshments will be served from 3:30 to 4 p.m.

31st Annual Distinguished Lecture: In Nursing The Transitional Care Model: A Path to Improve the Care of Older Adults and Family Caregivers

For nearly 20 years, Dr. Naylor, a Villanova nursing alumna, and Marian S. Ware Professor in Gerontology, Director of New Courtland Center for Transitions and Health, School of Nursing, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia - has led a multidisciplinary program of research designed to improve the quality of care, decrease unnecessary hospitalizations and reduce health care costs for vulnerable, community-based elders. To date, Dr. Naylor and her research team have completed three National Institute of Nursing funded randomized clinical trials testing and refining the Transitional Care Model, an innovative approach to addressing the needs of high risk chronically-ill elders and their family caregivers. With the support of several foundations, her research team has recently partnered with a major insurance organization and health care plan to translate this model into the "real world" of clinical practice and promote its widespread adoption. Dr. Naylor is involved in multiple studies and projects related to the care of elders and is the National Program Director for the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation sponsored Interdisciplinary Nursing Quality Research Initiative (INQRI) to generate, disseminate and translate research that demonstrates nursing's contribution to the quality of patient care. In recognition of her research and leadership, Dr. Naylor has received numerous awards. She was the first nurse selected as a McCann Scholar and was elected to the National Academy of Sciences, Institute of Medicine.

Native American Heritage Month Lecture: Paul C. Rosier, Ph.D. (11/18/2009)

Room: First Floor Lounge

Native American Heritage Month celebrates both the distinctive elements of Native culture and the contributions that Native people have made in shaping America. "Native Americans in America: the Continuities of History" focuses on the ways in which Native activists and politicians used the material legacy of 19th century conquest in the American West – hundreds of international treaties the U.S. government signed with Indian nations – to further the moral reputation of America as it assumed a prominent role in shaping world affairs in the 20th century, especially during the Cold War and the Vietnam War. Dr. Rosier also considers how the frontier narrative of the 19th century continues to define 21st century events such as the U.S.-Iraq war. His presentation includes images from his new book, Serving Their Country: American Indian Politics and Patriotism in the Twentieth Century, published by Harvard University Press. Paul C. Rosier is an Associate Professor in the department of History, Villanova University.

"Anytime-Anywhere" is a marketing phrase to entice students to consider taking online courses. Unfortunately, that very phrase also eliminates the opportunity for online course facilitators to include mandatory (or even optional) synchronous course elements and strategies in their teaching and learning initiatives.

This session will focus on a rich exchange of information relative to synchronous course element strategies, successes, challenges, and failures.

Presenter: Dr. Michael E. Scheuermann, Associate Vice-President for Instructional Technology Support at Drexel University.
