  2. Survey Results and Implications • Faculty Support Technology Expansion, Expect to be Consulted • Infrastructure Limits Faculty Use of Technology • Peer-to-Peer Networks Critical • More Training and Time to Use Technology

  3. Focus Group Discussions • Diverse Groups • Analysis Still Underway • General Findings: • Survey Findings Confirmed • Survey Conclusions and Implications Supported

  4. Focus Group Findings – 1(preliminary) • Pressure to use technology for enrollment, efficiency; poor decisions often due to lack of instructor input • Early adopters are way beyond most IT trainers and workshops; they’re learning on their own. • Early adopters are willing to mentor their peers, but they need release time, infrastructure, commitment • Centralized instructional technology library/network • More information/research on effective tools so faculty invest their time and energy wisely

  5. Focus Group Findings – 2 (preliminary) • Don’t assume students have skills: • Need for student technology skills assessments • Developmental courses • Geography matters: • Infrastructure and student demographics (SES) can limit student technology readiness, ability to benefit • Student readiness affects faculty use and experience with teaching tools; obstacles to technology use.

  6. Next Steps • Complete Focus Group data analysis • Complete Final report (Jan. 11) • Subsequent analyses (if requested)
