Cross-Disciplinary Learning and Innovative Uses of Technology in the Classroom |
|
In 2005, Penn State DuBois received an HP
Technology for Teaching grant to encourage
the transformation of learning and teaching.
Keely Roen, instructor in Wildlife
Technology, is using HP mobile tablet
personal computers to aid in the redesign of
the field-based laboratory component of her
Wildlife Management Techniques course. Roen
is partnering for this project with Jason
Long, Instructor and Program Leader in the
Information Sciences and Technology (IST)
program. Long's students are designing a
training program for the tablet PCs and
providing user support to Roen's wildlife
students which are using the tablet PCs to
collect and analyze field data, learn bird
songs, and create photo-dictionaries of
animals they encounter. Project Website
