Watch the Lightning Talks
In April and May 2021, the Office of the Provost hosted 10 sessions of Moment to See, Courage to Act 3-minute lightning talks by Notre Dame faculty. Presenters were asked to highlight, in broad terms, three main points:
- The focus of their work
- Why that work is important
- One recent finding or project that they are particularly excited about
There are two ways to access videos of the lightning talks:
1) Full Video Library
The entire library of 150+ lightning talks is housed in a single folder in the video platform Panopto. The talks are captioned and searchable by keyword:
Videos are listed alphabetically by presenters’ last names. Because of the search functionality, going straight to the full library is especially useful if you’re looking for talks from across different disciplines on a particular topic.
