The document discusses possibilities for using educational technology in higher education. It begins by outlining objectives of providing a conceptual framework, exposing educators to a range of technologies, and facilitating reflection on appropriate uses. It then cautions that technology alone will not solve problems and must be driven by good educational design. Several challenges for educators are discussed, such as how students can read materials, explore their discipline, engage in learning conversations, practice skills, and produce work. A variety of technology-enabled solutions are presented for each challenge, such as using audio/video, online discussions, simulations, and specialist software. Online learning environments and concerns around bandwidth constraints are also addressed.E-RESOURCES

Classrooms are increasingly moving away from traditional designs towards more flexible learning spaces that enable collaborative learning and integration of technology. This shift is being driven by changes in pedagogical approaches and student learning preferences, with teachers adopting more collaborative designs and students expecting to access information and work together both inside and outside the classroom. The new learning spaces are designed to support a variety of learning activities through adjustable furnishings and access to wireless devices, reflecting the changing needs of 21st century education.CRWG meeting minutes Sept

E-learning involves using digital tools and content to support learning, typically with some interactivity. It connects learners through internet-based learning and web-based learning. The purposes of e-learning include increasing access to learning opportunities, enhancing education quality, developing learner skills and accommodating different education methods at a lower cost. E-learning can use various media and technologies like learning management systems and provides conveniences like flexibility. Factors that support e-learning expansion in Indonesia include its climate, infrastructure, networks, and government commitment, while limitations include funds, human resources, and other barriers.Judy Stern

This document outlines activities for a week 8 tutorial on using ICT skills to enhance student engagement and literacy. It includes 1) having students work collaboratively in groups to evaluate potential settlement sites using a map and table, and 2) redesigning the activity for the 21st century using ICT strategies like blogs, storyboards, laptop wraps, and short films. Additional backup activities are discussed in case technology access is lost, such as carrying out the map activity without ICT or discussing assigned readings. The goal is to apply ICT literacies like access, integration, and communication while maintaining collaborative problem-solving.E-Learning

E-learning, or electronic learning, refers to learning facilitated through electronic media like the internet, computers, and mobile devices. It allows for flexible, self-paced learning and includes online courses, virtual classrooms, and digital collaboration. While e-learning began with distance learning via mail, computers and the internet have enabled new forms of virtual education and training. E-learning has several advantages like flexibility, reduced costs, and self-paced learning, but can also lead to isolation and lack of social interaction. It encompasses various approaches including computer-based learning, online training courses, and technology-enhanced collaborative learning.Web 20 workshop

Two small engineering courses used asynchronous learning technology to facilitate student-instructor and student-student interaction. Students completed homework assignments electronically by posting, executing, reporting, submitting, and receiving graded assignments via personal computers and the network. While this extended access to instructors, the small class sizes did not provide enough students to routinely facilitate intensive online discussions. However, asynchronous tools helped student groups work together to complete assignments and papers by exchanging materials electronically. Instructors found electronic grading of homework beneficial until long reports made on-screen reviewing difficult.Experiences Teaching Gis With Open Source Software

This document discusses the development of a national geospatial map utilizing Flex to visualize community college geospatial programs and related data. A team researched over 1,185 community colleges to classify their geospatial science and technology (GST) offerings. The data is stored in a geodatabase and integrated layers include colleges, faculty, regions, and projects. The map is hosted online and demonstrates how geospatial analysis can evaluate project impacts and identify colleges needing support. It provides examples of uses including identifying areas lacking programs, visualizing certificate/degree locations, and offering maps for students and faculty.Grant Writing Workshop

Program Abstract:
This project aims to improve technological education at [College Name] and partner secondary schools by developing a program to integrate more advanced technologies into classroom instruction. The project will provide professional development for 10 faculty members and 20 secondary teachers on technologies such as coding, cybersecurity, networking, and data analytics. New curriculum integrating these technologies will also be developed for introductory IT courses. Equipment such as Raspberry Pis, Arduinos, networking kits, and security tools will be purchased to support hands-on learning. Advisory boards including local businesses will provide input on technology needs. The project seeks to not only enhance STEM education but alsoNSF ATE GRant Writing Workshop
