Five Minues of Fame is the lunch session of the Academy of Teaching mini-conference sponsored by FTAD. The conference includes presentations by Dr. Gordon Gee, Chancellor Eric Fingerhut, and a variety of very interesting concurrent sessions on all aspects of teaching, from digital storytelling to "calendar conversion."
