The 3rd Annual FITS-Mellon Summer Workshop:
Engaging Students through Technology

Call for Projects:

The workshop will be mini-project based and focus on linking methods to course goals. It will include plenary sessions, mini-courses, opportunities to participate in discussion & birds-of-a-feather sessions, and plenty of structured time to work on your project.

Who Should Attend:

Faculty from all disciplines are encouraged to participate to stimulate discussion and solutions to common challenges of teaching, particularly those that involve technology. Faculty who attend will receive a stipend of $600.00.

By the end of the workshop, you will have developed a plan to implement effective use of technology for some aspect of a course you teach. You'll also acquire familiarity with the resources (staff, hardware, and software) available to support that project after the workshop is over.

How to Register:

Your Registration must include a brief description (up to 600 words) of a mini-project you will use in a course during the 2001-2002 academic year. A mini-project might range from creating a Web presence for an entire course to incorporating technology into one class meeting. Both solo and collaborative projects are welcomed.
