© Brown, D. G., & Petitto, K. R Computers allow people---- to belong to more communities to be more actively engaged in each community with more people over more miles for more months and years TO BE MORE COLLABORATIVE

© Brown, D. G., & Petitto, K. R Research Results ,844 students at 71 American Universities--- students at more wired schools actually reported more student-faculty contact, cooperation among students, and active learning. The Big Three Student Uses – with professors and classmates –Internet for class-related materials –Word processing Research Results

© Brown, D. G., & Petitto, K. R West Virginia Wesleyan College Model IBM ThinkPad – entire campus has same model 3 year lease Laptop + Network + Rich Electronic Library Resources = Information Technology Program Network Printers Available Very “Windows” oriented program Use of WebCT (not widespread) IBM Certified Repair Center 9 Support Staff/Faculty

© Brown, D. G., & Petitto, K. R How have programs changed since their inception?

© Brown, D. G., & Petitto, K. R The Big Three Administrative Decisions What vendor? What institutional model? Funding?

© Brown, D. G., & Petitto, K. R Vendor Considerations Institutional Customization Order and Delivery Length of contract (lease, buy, lease to buy, etc…) Durability of the “Box” Maintenance Teaching and Learning support

© Brown, D. G., & Petitto, K. R Model Considerations Response to Student Use and Expectations –Status Quo –Changing skill level –Changing work habits When, Where and How? Dynamic nature of Educational TechnologyEducational Technology Faculty Considerations Maintenance and Upkeep Institutional Commitment to the Program

© Brown, D. G., & Petitto, K. R Program Funding Sustaining Start-up Grants Endowment Losses Tuition and Fees Structures Overall cost projected to decrease –Computers, Networks, Hardware, Software

© Brown, D. G., & Petitto, K. R How do programs differ in management and delivery? Where is the administrative base of the program? How is the Library involved? HelpDesk issues Contract services Maintenance

© Brown, D. G., & Petitto, K. R What’s Ahead for Ubiquitous Campuses? Personal. Customized. Interactive. Student-Centered Curriculum Teams of Professionals Supporting Learning “Houses” instead of Disciplines Hybrid Courses (80-20 and 20-80) Loose-leaf Collections of Course Components, instead of Textbooks Electronic Portfolios for Students Wireless (802.11a) Less Infatuation with Computing
