"Whether we like to admit it or not, the use of cell phones and other technology in the college classroom is common, and is not going away! The challenge for instructors is to make the technology work to help improve the classroom environment, rather than allow it to be an obstacle to active learning, or to be a distraction. Students expect instructors to be technologically astute, and to foster an interactive learning environment." - excerpt from slides
2:50pm ET "Technology and Clickers: Enhancing the Learning Environment" 
From Indiana University: Greg Kitzmiller, Marketing

3:45pm ET "Facebook for Professors: Retrospective Inquiry-Based Assessment of Teaching and Learning"
