CONFERENCES AND EVENTS

Conference: TEACHING WELL USING TECHNOLOGY: A Faculty Member's Guide to Wise and
Time-Efficient Use of Instructional Technology
A planning workshop that guides faculty members through a 7-step course planning/technology adaptation process. The day starts with identification of course goals and available times and spaces for teaching and learning. This is followed with an overview of technology tools available and how they can impact the use of time and space. Faculty members leave with the beginnings of a redesigned course that includes thoughtfully selected technology tools that will help students reach the identified learning goals.

NATIONAL PROGRAMS

Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching, Carnegie Academy for the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (CASTL)
The CASTL Carnegie Scholars Program brings together outstanding faculty in higher education from a variety of academic fields to design and undertake investigations of issues in teaching and learning in their fields that will contribute to thought and practice. The Campus Programs provide networking and information exchange opportunities for campuses that wish to foster and support the scholarship of teaching and learning. The Scholarly and Professional Societies Program collaborates with disciplinary organizations in support of the scholarship of teaching and learning.

Collaborative Facilities
A project designed to collect, organize, and disseminate information about model "collaborative facilities" that integrate the services of information technologists, librarians, instructional technologists, multi-media producers, and others to serve a wide range of faculty and student needs. The project is sponsored by the Coalition for Networked Information (CNI) and hosted by Dartmouth College in an effort to assist institutions in planning, implementing, and evaluating these facilities. This web site allows information professionals, administrators, faculty, and other interested visitors to "tour" collaborative facilities online and to analyze documents related to their planning, design, administration, staffing, services, and funding. The site also provides contact information for each participating institution in order to encourage the development of an interactive community devoted to collaborative facilities.
