Triple Congratulations!!! For “developing students' ability to think critically, communicate effectively, solve problems, and interpret human experience; enhancing their creative and intellectual capacities; and broadening their historical, ethical, social, and international perspectives” –CLA Web Page For investing “in information technology to reinforce the University’s role as the State’s most comprehensive information content provider”— Strategic Initiatives Committee, January 2002 For showing up at this session & admitting that we all have much to learn

You are the pioneers! If you are to lead others, to inspire them to take advantage of technology--- you will need to highlight simple things that don’t take great skill or time

How has the computer already changed teaching and learning? Please write down two phrases and share what you have written with a neighbor!!! "A computer lets you make more mistakes faster than any invention in human history--with the possible exceptions of handguns and tequila." --Mitch Ratliffe, "Technology Review"

How has the computer changed teaching and learning? (my answer) 1.It’s caused every teacher to rethink & redesign. 2. By increasing student options, it has increased competition and compelled universities to pay more attention to the quality of teaching Our profession has been changed forever!

What We’ve Learned So Far About Technology and Teaching 1.More Learning results From Better Communication! 2.Students relish Buffets! 3.Blended Courses are Best! 4.Ubiquitous Access is Essential! 5.Simpler is Better! 6.Professor becomes Personal Trainer!

What We’ve Learned So Far About Technology & Management 1.More Productivity results From Better Communication! 2.All relish Buffets! 3.Blended Approaches are Best! 4.Ubiquitous Access is Essential! 5.Simpler is Better! 6.Manager becomes Personal Trainer!

Communication-Interaction

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

Reasons 150 Professors Added Computer Enhancements 1.Communication-Interaction 2.Collaboration-Teams 3.Controversy-Debate 4.Customization-Diversity 5.Consultants-Adjuncts

To understand a liberal arts education as an opportunity to study with professors who think by their own set of concepts To learn how to apply economic concepts To learn how to work collaboratively To learn computer skills To improve writing and speaking FIRST YEAR SEMINAR The Economists’ Way of Thinking: Students = 15 All Freshmen Required Course Before Class During Class. After Class

Communication-Interaction s Announcements Muddiest One Minute Quiz Reaction to Talk Student Profiles Blackboard

Here’s another way to increase communication, a way that wasn’t available before widespread use of the computer! Other professors would be wise to consider it. Your Turn! Please write down an idea you have! Pass it to the left end of your “row”! We’ll ask 4 or 5 or the aisle-sitters to read their favorite idea before I leave the podium.
