Thursday, September 10 @ 12noon: Tea & Technology in the CLIC.

The second Tea and Technology talk will focus on the process of supporting faculty and students who are integrating collaborative learning technologies in their work. Ann Thompson, Director of the Center for Technology in Teaching and Learning (www.ctlt.iastate.edu) at Iowa State University will meet with us via videoconference to discuss a technology mentoring program established at Iowa State University two decades ago. We hope to establish a similar technology mentoring program in the Curry School to support pilot technology projects. A link to a final chapter (“Lessons Learned”) in Ann’s book, “Faculty Mentoring: The Power of Students in Developing Technology Expertise,” is available here:

The link also includes a podcast of Ann discussing some of the lessons that they have learned about in two decades of technology integration in a school of education. See you on September 10th!

For more than two decades, Curry School students have served as technology mentors to Albemarle teachers through a joint Technology Infusion Program (TIP). The Curry Library Innovation Commons (CLIC) now extends this program to innovative practice in the Curry School itself. Interested faculty and students can now apply for grants to explore applied integration and innovation in the Curry School.
