Teaching with Technology in Higher Education Conference

Stevens Institute of Technology
September 18, 1996, 9 AM - 4 PM

On September 18, the Educational Activities Task Force of NJIN will present a conference called "Teaching with Technology in Higher Education" at Stevens Institute of Technology. This conference is intended for faculty at NJIN member institutions who are interested in learning how their peers have incorporated the use of various technologies into their courses. Staff, administrators, and other individuals are also welcome to attend. The emphasis will be on how to get started and will provide examples of successful projects. One session will address options and strategies for faculty members whose schools are still working toward full implementation of computing and network facilities on their campuses.

Presentations will be made by faculty representing a variety of disciplines and institutions of higher education. Attendees can select from several presentations throughout the day. There will be some hands-on lab sessions, so faculty can experience new ways of teaching and learning.

The keynote speaker will be Dr. Erwin Boschmann, Professor of Chemistry at Indiana University-Purdue University, Indianapolis since 1968. For the last 8 years he has served as the Associate Dean of the Faculties with responsibility for the professional development of 1,400 faculty members, as well as 800 part-time faculty. In this capacity, he has worked on initiation of the use of technology which has been a major mission of the university since 1988. He is the editor of the Electronic Classroom, published by Learned Information, Inc. in 1995.

Registration fee is $25 for NJIN Members and $150 for non-members. Please contact Kraig Roajphlastien for additional information.
