Saturday, April 13th, 2002, 7:00 PM - 9:00 PM
Speaker: Paul Collett, Nigel Stott, Malcolm Swanson
Technology is always embraced in the classroom, but the current wave of Internet and multimedia-based tools make it easy for teachers to fall behind. The presenters will introduce ideas for utilising these appealing technologies. Collett discusses creating wireless content-based sites students can access through portable devices, particularly cell phones. Stott looks at creating and using multimedia software. Swanson describes a course on multimedia technology used in a junior college. The session will end with a Q&A session with participants.
