Editor's Notes
- #8 iSoTL; Between May and today, we have lead 16 chapters, articles, papers, and presentations that are completed or in progress, plus several in development by college faculty SoTL teams. We have examined teaching practice, student perceptions, family experiences, and faculty development programs. Through a multi-strategy research effort, we have documented noteworthy change in technology integration and student-centered teaching. We developed new data collection protocols, rubrics, instruments and systems for the new learning ecosystem. Example title: - iCelebrate teaching and learning: Sharing the iPad experience, - iPad mobile learning initiative: Triangulation of data to determine early effectiveness - Measuring the difficult to measure: iPad mobile learning. - Substitution to augmentation: Faculty adoption of iPad mobile learning - Family perceptions and subsequent impacts from a college mobile learning program. - Faculty as creators of authentic content: A system to create and peer review academic resources. - Students as media creators in the mobile learning ecosystem. - iTunesU iLearn ecosystem. ----- Meeting Notes (1/20/13 11:56) ----- Measure faculty development AR, reflective practice, inquiry,
