2. My Major Themes 1/ For the next decade, teaching & learning (as well as tenure & promotion) will be dominated by experiments in pedagogy that are newly enabled by computers. 2/ The individual student will be the apex of all data-collection and the center of all learning strategies. 2

3. Although the “computer revolution is still in its infancy, already we know that--- 1.Hybrid courses are best (Central Florida) 2.Students on more wired campuses benefit from more effective teaching. (Kuh&Hu) 3.Most gains come from better communication. (Wake Forest) 4.New learning items are slow in coming, expensive to develop, & fairly perishable. 5.Five learning strategies are suddenly receiving much more attention. 6.Manufacturing & education are newly customized and just-in-time 3
