Campus tactical responses

• Working across the fallen world barrier
• Force quit
• Scribes

Managing attention in classroom

Howard Rheingold asks students to monitor flow of thoughts for 60 seconds---if they are not getting an IM or reading an email---make attention a pedagogy moment

take advantage of attention reduction---i.e. twitter--call out to people socailly ---hard to controll but can shape--grab information resources

Faculty driven and/or student driven changes  -- survey specific areas---analyze past use and future plans---document and share within A ITS

devise small steps for tech inclusion in classroom and projects to lead to bigger inclusion-- pilot projects

open workspace(s) for Faculty to learn, use and collaborate about technology --
