New Technology Faculty and Professional Learning Community (New Technology - FPLC)
Group Goals
Prior to developing group goals, we considered the following driving questions:
- How do you learn about new technologies?
- How do you learn new technologies?
- How do you decide whether or not to adopt a new technology?
- How do you incorporate a new technology into your teaching and/or other work processes?
- How do you assess whether or not the new technology is achieving your goal/s?
After discussion, the following group goals were determined. By the end of the 2007-2008 academic year, participants in the Jetsons FPLC will have:
- learned about various "new" technologies;
- implemented one "new" technology into one of his or her classes or work processes; and
- assessed the implementation of the "new" technology.
Individual Projects
A study was conducted during spring semester regarding the implementation of RSS feeds into classroom teaching and learning.
Results of individual projects will be posted end of Spring semester.
Resources
The new technology FPLC has created a separate online Jetson's wiki[1] as a way to keep track of meeting notes, resources, and group projects. Also, it met one of our goals in experimenting with new web-based technologies (in this case, Wetpaint[2].)
