Instructional Technology Issues

From Me:

• Designing for male and female minds-- differences in how technology is learned, viewed, and used between men and women.
• Open Courses- Should course material be available for others for free? What are the costs/rewards associated with this idea?
• Using Facebook as an instructional tool: The good, bad, and the ugly
• Cross-cultural learning through technology- designing not only for a single culture, but for the world
• The role of technology in the classroom: Is technology a crutch, a skill, or a supportive element in traditional education?
• What's to learn about Technology? The technologies we're using now are constantly changing. Is teaching technology in an undergraduate teacher education program productive?
• The helpfulness of Learning Management Systems
• Internet safety and childhood education
• Designing technologies for special needs students
