M06: Web 2.0-enabled Interdisciplinary Collaborations: New Opportunities
Jim Wolfgang, Director, Digital Innovation Group, Georgia College & State University, and Keith Politte, Manager, Technology Testing Center, Reynolds Journalism Institute, Missouri School of Journalism
Students today are savvy customers of higher education. They seek and expect educational engagement, service, and social networking as key components of their educational experience. And they know how to identify the institutions that offer them. At the same time, constricted budgets require creative and innovative approaches to accomplish more with less. Those of us charged with technology programs at our higher education institutions can leverage a range of tools and techniques, including Web 2.0-enabled interdisciplinary collaborations for instruction and beyond. IT leaders, administrators, faculty, and instructional designers will all benefit from the exposition of an unconventional approach which draws together a campus's unique strengths, accelerated through application of appropriate Web 2.0 technologies. This workshop will engage participants through a series of case studies, participatory exercises, and interactive dialogues.
Participants should bring a laptop with wireless capability with them to this workshop.
