Goucher College will be hosting a Conference on Academic Technology on Tuesday, May 17. A conference website has not yet been established, but likely topics include the following:
What are the latest technology trends and gadgets our students are using? What websites are they visiting and what are they doing there?
How do students use technology to engage in academic work?
The dark side: how can technology enable or even encourage academic dishonesty, and what can we do about it?
“Technology Fluency” for faculty: what do we need to know and how do we do it?
How does a course undergo a transformation through academic technology? What are the possible outcomes?
How can we apply distance education pedagogy in a face to face or mixed (hybrid) course setting?
How can we use technology to bridge the gap between extra-curricular activities and academics? Can technology bring about a living-learning environment?
