Grant awards announced

|
We're pleased to offer $1000 Course Design Enhancement Grants to the following faculty members for Spring 2008:
  • Mike Fry, Math Sciences
  • Michael Kitchens, Psychology
  • Renee Norris, Music
  • Bob Valgenti, Religion & Philosophy
  • Jane Yingling, Education 
The Grants page (see right menu) includes PDFs of their applications so you can see what they are working on. 
Here are the presentation and notes documents used by Fry, Duffy, Kline, and Hill during their CETL presentation April 3. We touched on many ideas and technologies, so don't try to absorb it all at once. Contact any of us and we can show you through any of the items we showed, such as using a wiki in class, setting up a blog-based website for class or portfolio using Wordpress (running my mental model assessment site) or Epsilen (New York Times portfolio site Jim showed). Lots of possibilities--but chew one bit at a time. Once you get the hang of these we'll jump into Twitter mode down the road...
