He will focus in particular on using lightweight, easily accessible tools like Twitter, grassroots video, and blogging in small doses to impact problems of practice. Examples from the PSU and UMW will be shown to focus discussion. In addition, staff from DTLT will be available to talk with participants one-on-one and in small groups about approaches to redesigning their own courses.
