We began session #12 with a description of the new "Frankenstein" cart that will enable instructors to capture audio and video of lectures, presentations, class discussions, etc. Contact
Jerry Case if you would like to know more.
Next,
Eva Zygmunt-Fillwalk described a project she is using in her EDEL 351 courses.
Project Snapshot documents her students' teaching and learning, as well as serves as a family communication tool about children's learning. Eva discussed ways that she uses the
Carnegie Gallery of Teaching and Learning to support what students are learning in undergraduate and graduate courses. This site offers many possibilities for documenting what our students are teaching.
Finally,
John Burton presented a model for rapidly growing our graduate online enrollment. We asked John some questions and had a discussion about how this would work in our department. If you were unable to attend the meeting, please e-mail me, and I will send the proposal to you. Post any comments you have about it on the blog. (Click on the text just below this entry that says "comments".) You can also e-mail me with comments. I will collate our thoughts and submit them to Jim. Please comment immediately, because John wants to quickly move forward on this.
