WSU declares Nov 16th Innovation Day

November 9, 2009 By Lisa Grigsby Leave a Comment

i_doicalloutInnovation is a new way of doing something that results in improved value or quality. It employs “out-of-the-box” thinking to generate positive changes in thinking, products, processes, organizations, and society. It makes creative thinking a useful reality.

Wright State University is embracing innovation  by declaring Mon, Nov 16th as the Day of Innovation.  They’ll start the day off with a news conference at 10:30am then invite both students and the community to join them, either in person or online, to spend the day defining issues that they will work on to help improve the Miami Valley.

Peter Hancock
Expert on human-technology relations

November 16, 2009
7 p.m., Student Union Apollo Room,

Peter Handcock

An expert on the relationship between human beings and technology, Peter Hancock, D.Sc., Ph.D., heads the Minds in Technology/Machines in Thought (MIT²) laboratory at the University of Central Florida. Hancock studies how humans shape technology, and how technology shapes us. He poses that technology “is the gatekeeper that acts to decide who shall have and who shall have not…. Whatever we are to become is bound up not only in our biology but critically in our technology.” The possible future of this symbiosis is the subject of his latest book, Mind, Machine and Morality: Toward a Philosophy of Human-Technology Symbiosis.

Hancock is Provost Distinguished Research Professor in the Department of Psychology and the Institute for Simulation and Training at the University of Central Florida. In 2009, he was named University Pegasus Professor, the highest award given by the university. Visit the Presidential Lecture Series page to learn more.

All events are FREE and open to the public.

About Lisa Grigsby

Lisa Grigsby is a Special Events Director with over thirty years experience in promotions, event coordination and public relations.

Owning Jokers Comedy Cafe for 20 years taught Lisa to maintain a sense of humor under pressure. She credits Leadership Dayton for exposing her to the amazing assets of the region and Clothes That Work for being her reason she stayed in Dayton. Her proudest accomplishment as a past president of the Miami Valley Restaurant Association was creating Restaurant Week, a twice a year tradition that continues to grow and benefit local charities as well.
