Faculty Perspectives - 2 Alan Hardcastle, WSU
The Proficiency Factor -1 Faculty who say they are proficient users of technology: • Teach more technology-enabled classes • Use more advanced types of technologies • Tend to be positive about technology and its benefits • Want more training in advanced technologies • Prefer self-study, professional workshops/conferences, and online options for technology training.

The Proficiency Factor -2 Faculty who say they are not proficient users of technology: • Teach fewer classes using technology • Use less advanced technologies • Are moderately positive about technology, and less sure of its benefits • Want more training in less-advanced technologies • Prefer other instructors, college it/technology department classes, and professional workshops/conferences for technology training.
