http://www.ncsu.edu/classtech/workshops/ugassess2005/ 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.

http://www.ncsu.edu/classtech/workshops/ugassess2005/ 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
26
http://www.ncsu.edu/classtech/workshops/ugassess2005/ 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.”
