class activity using mobile devicesFaculty Engagement

The Division of Information Technology and the Center for Teaching Excellence have partnered to support faculty exploration in mobile learning. Mobile Learning Fellows are selected to participate in the annual Center for Teaching Excellence's Summer Institute for New(er) Technologies and then are supported by the Mobility Initiative during the academic year as they incorporate mobile learning in their courses. In addition, a separate proposal process is conducted for the spring semester each academic year for faculty interested in experimenting with mobile learning. Those faculty who are selected receive access to the loaner pool of iPod touch devices that are part of the Mobility Initiative.

Below are the Mobile Learning Fellows along with descriptions of some of their class activities using mobile devices.
