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 Spring 2012 semester we heard from Rebecca Drenovsky and Chris Sheil about using Ipads; from Mariah Webinger, Patti Weiss, Jeff Dyck and Denise Ben-Porath about Clickers (Classroom Response Systems); from Tracy Masterson and Carl Spitznagel about Smart Pens; and from Medora Barnes and Carrie Buchanan about using Technology for Student Projects–Flip cameras and Ipads.  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.
