Mindful Consulting: Protecting Ourselves and Faculty from Tidal Waves of Information

Sept 23, 2011 at 2pm ET - free to all.

Guests: Ben McFadyen, Academic Technology Consultant from Teaching and Learning Technologies and the Center for the Advancement of Teaching and Learning, Elon University

Over-saturated by information technology? What to do when technology has become both goal and experience? How must we deal with the social and organizational pressures to adopt technologies? In a culture both smitten and driven by technology, faculty and staff play the roles of consultant, client, and partners as they explore various paths to meet pedagogical and classroom needs. In this session, McFadyen discusses how faculty and staff can partner together to survive the relentless avalanche of techno-data by using a consultative approach that drives technology, instead of conversations about technology that drive teaching.
