Technology for Teaching Institute
The first Technology for Teaching Summer Institute was held June 15-19, 1998 at California State University, Monterey Bay. The Summer Institute was sponsored by the State Academic Senate and the @ONE project. Seventy-five faculty participants from California community colleges attended three and five day tracks on Web Site Design, Online Course Development, and Multimedia. The sessions provided hands on activities. Participants worked in computer labs on projects related to their curriculum areas. The labs were conveniently open in the evenings with dedicated instructors to assist participants. Faculty participants developed their websites and began putting their course materials online. Some of the work done at the institute can be viewed at Jim Locke's site: http://www.marin.cc.ca.us/~jim/institute. The opening session of the Institute featured Dr. John Ittelson from CSU, Monterey Bay. His topic was "Setting the Stage - An Introduction to Instructional Design for a New Educational Age." On Wednesday, videoconferencing sessions were held with I. Jukes from Vancover and West Valley College in Saratoga. Carl Brown, of the High Tech Center, addressed technology related issues, resources, and policies which are changing how higher education meets the needs of students with disabilities. Carl explored valuable design methods to make web sites accesible to students with low vision. Future training and co-sponsored events will be posted on the @ONE web site at http://one.fhda.edu. |
