Offered in cooperation with the Center for Digital Media, this lunch series is meant to offer faculty a means to learn more about the use of new technologies by hearing about the experiences of colleagues who have tried them out in the classroom.  In the Fall semester we heard from Luigi Ferri and Jeff LaFavre about using ipads for a course on Italian opera; from Dan Palmer and Mike Nichols about Second Life and podcasting; and from Malia McAndrew and Karen Gygli about discussion threads.  The schedule for this semester is below; all lunches will be in the College of Arts and Sciences Conference Room from 12:00-1:00.
