Student Learning when Teaching with Technology: Aligning Objectives, Methods, and Assessments Karen St.Clair Faculty Center for Teaching & Learning Stan North Martin Information Technology Division

Session Agenda  Overview of ClassTech and the LITRE plan  Initial assessment activities  Brainstorming TLT methods in your course  Sharing ideas

ClassTech’s Roots (1)  Requests for technology percolating up to deans, dept. heads  $525M in new capital projects increasing number of classrooms by 20%  Ad Hoc Classroom Improvement Group appointed  Classroom Environment Committee expanding its focus

ClassTech’s Roots (2)  Implement basic technology  Support the users  Maintain the equipment  Assess the outcomes Equipment usefulness, functionality, training, support

Meanwhile…  Preparing NC State’s Quality Enhancement Plan — Learning in a Technology Rich Environment (LITRE) Empirical research program aimed at enhancing learning with technology opportunities available to students and faculty

LITRE Faculty Survey (2003)  Why: Inform recommendations of LITRE and provide baseline for future LITRE efforts  Who and What: Faculty were surveyed about their experiences with computer-based instructional and learning aids. 1,790 faculty were invited to participate in the survey. 983 did—a response rate of 55%.  Indicator: Respondents were asked what would make it easier to use the technologies that they did use in their courses: “If they were available and supported in the classrooms in which I typically teach” was chosen most often, 37% of the time.  Survey report and instrument at:

LITRE First Wave Initiatives  SCALE-UP Classroom Software Investment SCALE-UP  Student Group Collaboration Space (Flyspace)Flyspace  Classroom Improvement Plan Classroom Improvement  ClassTech Pilot Project ClassTech

ClassTech Progress To Date  10 classrooms online last Spring  19 classrooms supported in Fall  26 classrooms supported this Spring  55 anticipated next Fall

Assessing ClassTech—Round One  Spring 2004 Surveyed 80 instructors of the 116 sections, 43% response rate Surveyed ResNet student survey questionsurvey UPA sophomore and graduating senior surveyssurveys  Fall 2004 Surveyed 124 instructors of the 217 sections, 28% response rate Surveyed Conducted brief student survey in four classes Follow-up open-ended survey with specific faculty and interviewed several faculty

LITRE Research Question  “Does the technology affect how faculty members teach and how students learn?”

Back to the chalkboard…  It all funnels down to a course that an instructor teaches with the goal of students learning.

Approach Summary  Literature review  Scholarship of Teaching and Learning  Model UGA program review process

LITRE Research Question  “Does the technology affect how faculty members teach and how students learn?”

Assessing ClassTech—Round Two  Rethink assessment plan  Revise research question  Create a Faculty Learning Community

Changing level of importance Spring 2004 Fall 2004

ClassTech Pilot Assessment  Does it enhance learning? “It reaches more learning styles.” “It ‘forced’ students to take more active role in the class and their learning” “I don't imagine it's made a terribly significant difference.”  ResNet student survey (not representative) 88% said use of technology in the classroom enhanced their ability to learn the material somewhat (38%) or a lot (50%) Mixed comments on use of tools such as PowerPoint

ClassTech Pilot Assessment  Does it enhance teaching? “Having the technology has allowed me to use more complex diagrams and multimedia resources that enhance exposure to material.” “Setup time [was] reduced dramatically when I needed to use a computer.” “I don't have to provide so many handouts. Online material can be accessed during class!” “I felt a little awkward at times because I was unsure of how to use the technology most effectively.”
