Computers Enhance My Teaching and/or Learning Via-- Presentations Better--20% More Opportunities to Practice & Analyze--35% More Access to Source Materials via Internet--43% More Communication with Faculty Colleagues, Classmates, and Between Faculty and Students--87%

WHY COMPUTERS? …the faculty answer Interactive Learning Learn by Doing Collaborative Learning Integration of Theory and Practice Visualization Communication Different Strokes for Different Folks

Main Impact of Computers Upon Learning in College Student Self Confidence is Shaken When They Aren’t Computer Savvy Availability of New Methods of Teaching & Learning has greatly increased how much and how we think about effective teaching. Different strokes for different folks-- individualization w/o necessarily personalization Community is strengthened in every way! [Always in Touch]

I think we’re here because... Our profession has new gardening tools. We want to learn which ones will be useful in stimulating growth in our own gardens.

Concepts Underlying Strategy Eager Faculty Faculty Ownership Centrality of Educational Theory Communication & Conversation Hybrid Instruction Friendly Sharing Flexibility Diversity among Disciplines Non-threatening Innovation Patience

The Big Five #1. Continuous Communication #2. Repetition #3. Controversy and Debate #4. Different Strokes, Different Folks #5. Outsider Involvement

The Low Hanging Six  & Listservs  URL addresses (in syllabus)  Annotations within word processed documents  Powerpoint “lecture outlines”  Mini-movies that show successive computer screens  Practice quizzing prior-to-class (via WebCT)
