This section highlights educators and their use of technology in creative and effective ways. It focuses on the way they use technology to advance their instructional goals, and discusses the pros and cons of educators' experiences introducing technology in teaching.

Accumulative Interaction
Tom Link, Psychology, created a class website that allows students to benefit from seeing past students work, as well as access test reviews and participate in on-line discussions.

Online Text, Audio & Video Speeches
Warren Brown, Speech Communication, uses the Internet as a tool in his classes to access speeches available in text, audio and video formats. His intercultural communication classes use an online chat room to visit with others from foreign countries.

Using Blackboard
Sandy Croswaite, Chemical Dependency, uses Blackboard, a free online web service that allows students to privately access their grades, class calendar, discussion threads, and class chat rooms.

Traditional Classes versus Distance Learning
Bob Mohrbacher, English, uses Unilearn for his online class at the moment, and he will later use Blackboard instead. He has also used Blackboard for some of his other English classes incorporating the central posting area for publishing his students' work.
