The eleventh annual Mary Washington (was College now University) Faculty Academy is scheduled to start tomorrow, May 16, 2006. It looks like yet another excellent lineup of speakers and presentations, and some great guest speakers – Rachel Smith, New Media Consortium, Cyprien Lomas, EDUCAUSE Learning Initiative scholar-in-residence, and Jon Udell, Infoworld Magazine.
I’m involved in 2 panel sessions this year. One is Panel Discussion: “A Conversation about Blogging at UMW” Ernie Ackerman, Teresa Coffman, Leanna Giancarlo, Steve Greenlaw, Jeff McClurken, Tim O’Donnell, John Pearce, Anand Rao, Marcel Rotter, Gregg Stull. At last year’s Faculty Academy I also was on a panel about blogging, “Blogging In Teaching and Learning.” The other is listed as “Ernie Ackermann, Mara Scanlon, David MacEwen, Gregg Stull, Steve Greenlaw (UMW), “What’s a Wiki For?” A panel presentation/discussion of the ways that several faculty are using a wiki in their teaching or department’s activities. The discussion will provide several viewpoints on ways to use a wiki in an academic setting.”
It should be fun.
