Déguelasse

Consider the condescending tone taken toward faculty here.

Blended learning can be a dirty word among some members of your faculty. The fears of embarrassing technical snafus, poor student attendance, and job insecurity often enter the discussion when it comes to using lecture capture in a blended learning model. This web seminar will explore why blended learning and lecture capture may make your faculty nervous and how to help them to overcome their fears and increase their effectiveness.

Join our panel of faculty who have survived and thrived using class capture and hear their accounts of the positive, negative and humorous aspects of teaching in a blended learning environment, including: how to bring faculty on board with blended learning; why lecture capture isn’t the equivalent to a nanny cam; how to interact with the digital student and gain new insights into study habits and comprehension; and what to do when class attendance rises and no one shows up during office hours.

Discover how a blended learning strategy maximizes instructor effectiveness and student engagement – register today!

Who should attend: Deans, CIOs, Directors of Academic Computing/Information Technology – anyone responsible for engaging faculty with technology.

Each of my courses already has two interactive websites. The Chronicle of Higher Education can go get stuffed. I am so glad I am not them to talk about people in this way.

Axé.

  1. I’m with you on this completely. I’m designing a blended course right now and I find their tone in this quote to be very annoying. The faculty are not small children and we definitely don’t need to be patronized.
