- 2009 Summer Institute: Enhancing Teaching and Learning with Technology: Powerful interactive technologies are creating new models of instruction that enhance our ability to communicate and collaborate, create and manipulate, model and simulate, calculate and analyze, and visualize and present, while cost-effectively easing the barriers of distance, place, and time. Such technologies are the focus of the workshops comprising the 2009 Summer Institute, Enhancing Teaching and Learning with Technology, scheduled to run in two installments during the weeks of May 18 and May 25. Conducted by Boise State faculty and staff from Academic Technologies, the workshops introduce participants to technology tools, explore the pedagogical implications and considerations of using such tools, and provide assisted hands-on practice in applying the tools to teaching and learning.

- Lecture Capture Technology Now Available: Academic Technologies is currently beta-testing a new capability—lecture capture—built into most of the rooms in the Interactive Learning Center. This technology allows you to automatically capture video and audio of yourself at the teaching podium while also capturing any projected visuals. You can then publish the captured lecture to the web for on-demand viewing by students on a computer or a mobile device such as an iPod or cell phone. More, including examples of captured lectures . . .
- Academic Technologies is pleased to make available student response systems, or "clickers," for faculty to use in
bringing immediate feedback and interaction to lecture courses. "Clickers" use small keypads, which wirelessly transmit student input to a receiver connected to a computer used
by an instructor. More . . .
