Technology Mentoring Talk on Thursday

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!
