Final notes: How to use this blog

Published 08 July 08 10:50 AM

The intent of this blog is twofold; primarily to provide you with a quick reference guide (albeit, in my own words, with a student bias) to any of the keynotes, workshops and panel discussions you'd like to refresh your memory of, and perhaps gain a slightly differing point of view on; secondly to help you to frame and kick-off your own internal discussions about what the future of Higher Education looks like for the sector, region or even business you represent.

You can view the content of the conference on this blog in one of three ways, whichever works best for you. Most likely, this will be a mishmash of all three.

Under every post, you can also leave a comment, start a discussion and contribute your own thoughts and points of view for others to see. Please make full use of this feature, for the benefit of all. Here's those three ways:

1. Pictorially

Throughout the conference, a talented artiste has been capturing the ebb and flow of the conversation in pictoral form, and each of these are available as high quality images for you to download and view at your leisure. We've put each one under every post, which you can view chronologically (see below).

2. Topically

At the right hand side of this blog, you will notice a 'tags' section. This collection of keywords should go some way towards finding the posts which relate to, and talk about a certain topic which may be of particular interest to you at any one time.

3. Chronologically

Click here for a quick outline of the agenda of the conference, with links to posts relating to each session. Alternatively, just read the blog from the bottom upwards, and you'll progress from the start to the finish naturally.

Thanks,

Ian & Ben

Current approaches to broaden the instructional repertoires of faculty members include faculty workshops, summer leave, and individual consultations, but these approaches work only for those relatively few early adopter faculty members who seek out opportunities to broaden their instructional methods. The major problem is how to affect organizational culture as a whole so that most professors will be receptive to adopting active learning methods and using IT tools to enhance the effectiveness of these methods in their classes.

I have described the approach that requires engaging faculty members at the departmental level in thinking about the future and its implications for their institution, their curriculum, their students, and their careers. See “Using A Futures Approach to Organizational and Faculty Development” at http://horizon.unc.edu/projects/seminars/ELME.html for the complete argument.
