With a Little Help from My Friends...
Implementing Information Technology into the Curriculum

Thursday, Dec. 7, 2000, 11:30am-1:30pm

According to the Kenneth C. Green's 1999 Campus Computing Survey, helping faculty integrate information technology into the curriculum is the "single most important IT issue" confronting campuses across the U.S. It's an issue that looms even larger as technology becomes an integral part of teaching and learning.

Join us for a workshop led by Dr. Green, a nationally recognized authority on the use of information technology in higher education.  He'll tell us what the survey data say about support for faculty nationwide, what the data means in practical terms for everyone on campus, and what we should do next.
