Technology-enhanced Teaching and Learning

The new technology-rich teaching and learning environments are changing traditional higher education. This book offers a practical guide for college and university administrators who must move their institutions to becoming e-learning environments. The authors discuss new styles of institutional leadership, governance and decision-making, and examine the issues associated with faculty support and engagement, communication, and intellectual property. The book makes recommendations for gaining community consensus for the new directions, engaging and motivating faculty to use technology, and describes new roles for faculty in an e-learning environment. This volume also outlines a systemic approach to supporting faculty in online course development, and describes an instructional technology support model that engages a team approach.
