Educause Names Top Teaching-With-Technology Challenges for 2009
Educause, the higher-education technology group, has released its list of top teaching and learning challenges of 2009.
The top five challenges were selected by a combination of focus groups, surveys of interested professionals, face-to-face brainstorming, and a final vote. The challenges are:
1. Creating learning environments that promote active learning, critical thinking, collaborative learning, and knowledge creation. 2. Developing 21st-century literacies — information, digital, and visual — among students and faculty members. 3. Reaching and engaging today’s learners. 4. Encouraging faculty members to adopt, and innovate with, new technology for teaching and learning. 5. Advancing innovation in teaching and learning with technology in an era of budget cuts.
Educause officials say they will now begin soliciting a volunteers to collaborate on solutions for each challenge using the project’s wiki. —Steve Kolowich
