Here is some information connected to past CTL workshops

 

October 31: Dialogues on Digital Literacy Series - "Generation Next Goes to College: Students, Faculty, and the Digital Divide." Take a look at the NOTES that we generated during the session and the MOVIE about Generation Next.

Dialogues on Digital Literacy Series - "Generation Next: What Do They Really Know?" As an outgrowth of a TLTR subcommittee, Ellenmarie Wahlrab, Brad Farr, and John Burke surveyed 571 students in sections of ENG 007, 111, and 112 this past fall. This survey, the Technology Fluency Assessment Questionnaire (TFAQ), provided interesting and surprising results about students’ technical ability and access to technology. We will share the highlights of our findings from the TFAQ.
