Ithaca College

Pat Spencer, of the Writing Department is the guest host of the next Faculty Show and Share on Monday, December 5st, at 3:30- 4:30 pm in the CET (Job 102).  If you've posed a reading-based question in class and received sustained silence and blank stares, you might want to join us. If you've longed for a more transparent group process for your course-based teams, you might want to stop by. We will discuss the benefits of using Sakai Forums to prime the conversation pump and to document group process. Of course, we encourage shared stories.   Any students are welcome as well.

Registration is appreciated but not required.

The Center for Educational Technology presents a new discussion series called "Faculty Show and Share." Each session features a guest faculty member who shows how they use a technology to address a teaching goal.  Come hear what worked  - or didn't work in a format that is informal, experimental, and fun.  Discussion is encouraged and anyone is welcomed regardless of their experience with technology.  Check out the Fall 2011 Events below. Space is limited so please register at the Instructional Support Services web site or by clicking the links below.
