The Learning Technologies Initiative: How we got from nowhere to somewhere The seed is planted and a task force appointed (1994) Symposium on Learning Technologies (1995) “Beyond the Symposium” Vision Objectives The seed is planted and a task force appointed (1994) Symposium on Learning Technologies (1995) “Beyond the Symposium” Vision Objectives

“Beyond the Symposium” OBJECTIVES: Enhanced communication Collaborative acquisition and development Shared instruction Shared information resources Training and support Technical and administrative infrastructures to support and encourage cooperative activities OBJECTIVES: Enhanced communication Collaborative acquisition and development Shared instruction Shared information resources Training and support Technical and administrative infrastructures to support and encourage cooperative activities

Conspiring to Collaborate: Six Strategies for Success Regular meetings of LTI Sharing of information via newsletters Sponsorship of conferences Seed-Grant initiative Sponsorship of video courses Consortial participation in the Instructional Management Systems Regular meetings of LTI Sharing of information via newsletters Sponsorship of conferences Seed-Grant initiative Sponsorship of video courses Consortial participation in the Instructional Management Systems

Regular LTI Meetings Provost appoints one representative to the LTI group. LTI members meet quarterly, forming a cohesive group of change agents. Goal is to find or create opportunities to facilitate collaboration:“to make collaboration routine” among faculty at 13 institutions. Provost appoints one representative to the LTI group.
