商品簡介
Communications and information, of course, but also a wide scattering of other fields provide disciplinary footing for scholars as they present practical case studies of applying digital technologies in higher education. Their topics include open source and bridging the digital divide, overcoming challenges and realizing opportunities of education technology in teacher education, wikis as open educational resources in higher education, the techno-ethical study of electronic technology use and abuse at university, the potential for student engagement using clickers in a large introductory class, improving the education of engineering students with electronic learning, and designing effective web-based courses in engineering. Selected readings consider the design of digital repositories in higher education, the experience of Addis Ababa University in Ethiopia, and game-informed virtual patients.
