Good information and demonstrations Learned and socialized – great networking Lots of varied information; chance to interact with colleagues Exciting to think of possibilities Much information was new to me – very helpful Excellent introduction to learning activities Great delivery and prep by faculty Thanks for doing this on a Saturday! Inspiring and challenging Learned about teaching tools Covered a variety of topics (2) Lots of general information to get me thinking FAU needs more of these types of programs (Faculty learning from Faculty) Technology is particularly useful Opportunity to talk with likeminded colleagues outside of my department/college! Ideas were great! Learned a lot It was an excellent effort to show support for this area New Technology Good ideas – online teaching and podcasts

Too much going on at the same time; no practical use; but learn the ideas. I found topics and presentations of interest I was hoping for more specific examples that I could see and use Needed more basics on foundations in blackboard use In the sessions basics as well as more advanced issues were addressed. We need more basic presentations as well. Was hoping for more basic – how to start info and support to learn how to use the clicker system. Concurrent sessions precluded being in two rooms at same time.

The Showcase was held at a convenient time/day of the week for me. Strongly Agree • Saturday is great • Keep Saturday morning format. This is most convenient. • Yes!! We can concentrate and learn without worrying about our class. Agree • Saturday is good • Prefer a Friday event • But Friday would have been better Disagree • Weekends are short enough! • Some of us teach fast track Saturday classes and we live over 90 miles away. Strongly Disagree • Use a weekday and a Saturday. This was a great idea, but needs to be expanded. Back to previous page

What did you like/dislike most about the showcase? Like • The presenters info • The hands on reflections of those professors already employing the technology • Meeting with colleagues – learning more about using technology • Panel Groups/discussions (2) • Intimate setting • Experience for faculty • Learning and sharing with other faculty • I thought it was valuable and would love to see more in depth sessions in the future • Varity of information; presenters were approachable and not intimidating about technology. • All the sessions and main speaker. • The presentation of personal experiences, new ideas • Interaction with instructors; showing new technology • Podcasting • Mix of people and subjects were good • The ability to hear about potential things coming. To chat and ask questions • Liked mostly everything • iclicker demo

Back to previous page

Dislike • The food – all white flour in this day of diabetes disease and obesity at a forward thinking conference is unacceptable; and no veggies?! • Some assumed a lot of previous technological knowledge • It was on Saturday • The keynote did not have a clear picture, goal, or message • Not enough presenters • Keynote was not very good • Too Cold. Wish I could have heard more presentations

What topics would you like to see offered at a future showcase conference or workshop? • • • • • •

• • • • • • • • • • •

More on using iClicker or similar technology Teaching strategies/practices (2) More technical information (2) Detailed learning activities Mobile technology Mini workshops on specific topics – we bring our own laptops (IE; teach us how to add podcasts or other feature to blackboard course.) How to use less paper and more e-devices Hands on examples of actual use of the different technologies(2) Discipline/specific breakout sessions Smaller round table discussions Teaching large online classes Mini podcasts on Camptasia sessions created to address a series of how tos for podcasts using the various tools in Blackboard. Using digital images more effectively. Powerpoint modification software Creating podcasts Promethean boards Elliminate (The basics)

Additional thoughts, comments, or suggestions • • • • • • • • • • • • • •

Need to sub-divide the group into novice to experienced user sessions to make the material more relevant to the user Maybe label levels (Beginner; middle; advance) for each session so professors attend appropriate sessions. I would like FAU to have one place to go to FAU for Podcasts to show us how to do things These are wonderful. Offer these twice a year (fall and spring) on a weekend. Subdivide audience on experience (Grad/undergrad; online teaching/classroom teaching) Thank you for all of your hard work! It was worth the trip!!! Need to develop short podcasts on what faculty want/need to know… how to develop a grade book in BB, how to post a YouTube video in HTML, etc. Where to get iclickers and how to use them. Need to provide in the spot consultants for faculty – brown bags, etc. n need iPod video on how to set up an online field trip Need iPod video on how to set up tests and consultant to help Thanks for hosting this!!! Where are the films of the sessions going to be posted? One place, I hope. Offer regular training (hands –on “Over the shoulder”) I’ve seen offering of computer training given at all campuses on blackboard etc. –

Please offer more of theses: • • •

Podcast Online Field trips Creation of videos to place in online course

Provide more vegetarian choices Can’t wait for brown bags! Would have been helpful to put us in groups

Awesome! Not really relevant and too generalized; some of us teach using blackboard an expected this to give us specific skills to use, not a lecture about why we need to use technology. We are using it, but expected details today and “hands on” individualized focuses. She should have asked who already knows Bb. And ask for us to pre assess what they expect and want to do today. Liked the videos. Add how “Google maps” is done – fascinating (A truck or bike drives down the street with a camera on top) This was on Rachel Maddow Oct 23, 2009 (yesterday). She is an incredible, dynamic speaker. Would love to take a class with her. She is out of touch. FAU is not a community college . FAU is striving to be a research, top-tired university. Our teaching should accommodate this trend. A keynote is supposed to set the tone. To be honest – she made me question if I wanted to stay. Keynote presentation was not as strong as it could have been. Actually it was the least effective. Somewhat disappointed – would have helped to have a printed version of slides or an outline/ did not appear to know her audience’s needs. Where is the mini tool bit? Needed to see it when we were learning about it. Too long, more time for questions and answers. Loved the iClickers Would have been nice to have her stay for the lunch within informal questions.

Opened up a world of possibilities! Too many panel members; boring. Some presenters were easier to follow than others Look forward to seminar in January Many ideas, needed more time Less talking – more showing. After all, this was a technology conference • None of the panel introduced themselves- who were they? • Too many speakers, too little time Back to previous page

I was able to "learn" new tools to use in class. I could envision how to put the tools to use as presenters and attendees offered how they are utilizing tools in their classroom / courses. It lessened my fear of trying new things. I felt like I could contact presenters and others for further guidance if I got stuck. Great speakers with information that was applicable to all of us. Great venue, excellent speakers, engaging participants, perfect time management (everything started and finished as planned, time slots were just perfect—not too long/short), relaxing atmosphere… and prizes! The presentations are top-notch and well-done. The event was well-planned. Both the presenters and the attendees were enthusiastic and I learned a great deal. The organization, concurrent session topics, venue, presenters, and exhibits were of the highest quality. I was very impressed. This showcase mirrored the “big” ones I have attended. Fabulous job. Thank you. Liked the start time, quality of speakers, camaraderie, and I won a door prize The final presentation was long and did not seem appropriate for the meeting. Learned about a lot of technology I didn’t know about. The time allowed for discussions was too short. I learned so much about new technologies to use in online classes! Knowledgeable presenters. Practical applications of new “bells and whistles.” A lot of practical tips and information were provided, but I found James Fowlkes’ presentation particularly provocative and edifying. I learned a lot. It was a good showcase and I learned a lot. However, I felt it was not quite as strong as last year (so, I’m spoiled) and the luncheon keynote was very difficult to follow. A good variety of technologies were discussed.

Teaching tips are what I hoped to find and that is what I got. Great information and wonderful setting. One of the best things FAU has done. I couldn’t stay for the whole thing, and there were many presentations I wanted to see but they were all at the same time. Otherwise, it was very well presented. I learned plenty in just the short session with Jenny Peluso. I learned a lot of new things (e.g. Jing) and it is always great to hear the experiences of other professors in the use of eLearning tools. The collaborative environment and variety of educational technologies demonstrated are sure to be helpful. The program was put together very well and the presenters were passionate about their subjects and knowledgeable. Lived up to its name of “showcase”—that is, a nice overview of what’s currently out there to use. Hanadi Saleh was very clear and took it from Step 1—she didn’t expect you to already know stuff. Great opportunity to see what others are doing, and to get up-to-date information on technologies and practices. Well organized and executed.

2. Please rate the following: Keynote Address: “The Newest Technology Tools for Teaching” (Kevin Yee, UCF)  Excellent 57.1% (16)  Good 42.9% (12)  Fair 0%  Poor 0% Comments: 

    

Set the tone for how many possibilities there are out there...and provided brief explanations of some differences. It set things up for the sessions I was to choose to attend. The speaker was good, but on as engaging as I’d expected. Slightly disorganized. Tools discussed were all new to me, so I was very motivated and found the learning applicable to my teaching assignments. Difficult to cover so many… perhaps fewer to be covered and more demonstration? Interesting, but not all that compelling.

  

This was a great introduction to the many technology tools which were introduced in the various sessions and by the exhibitors. Interesting and collegial—not sure the talk could decide what it was exactly, not quite a tutorial, not quite an overview… Good information.

I unfortunately was called away in the middle of his presentation. I was very interested in following his presentation/theory and will look for the opportunity to view it on-line if it is to be posted. The very best speaker so far!! You could do a 3 hour workshop with this information. Such a follow up would be wonderful! Prezi and graphics were great, speaker had the best intentions, but the presentation just did not work for me (and, I suspect, much of the audience). I left with nothing I could apply in my life as a teacher (which was the opposite of what had happened with all the other talks earlier in the day). Not practical. Lots of theories and no action. I found this presentation full of jargon and barely understandable. This spin on Blooms was new to me. Wow!! Too much theory and not enough how to use technology with his theory. Too long. Well presented. Showed the importance of “motivation.” Good use of Prezi… and great info for my research! Subject too heavy for lunchtime. Esoteric learning theory discussion not particularly relevant to conference topic. Presenter seemed antagonistic to audience at times. Unfortunately, this session felt long and meandering—it was very difficult to follow and I was very frustrated trying to figure out what it was I was supposed to be getting from this. What I wanted was some great demonstration of how to create great courses; what I got was a nice presentation that I could not follow

(either substantively or technically) and some strange advice on how I should be teaching my students which I did not think was relevant here. I’m afraid I was lost. He is not “poor” and he is obviously knowledgeable about theories of instructional design. But, for me, the topic was “poor.” I was not able to follow all the content and I wasn’t really looking for the theoretical framework as much as the practical application of tools. Perhaps the time frame after lunch and before the raffle had something with my inability to grasp all the content. He was too tech-over-the-head of much of the audience. He lost me early on. James’ presentation was great—although most of us were suffering from technology haze by the time he gave his presentation. It is definitely one that was well thought out, well presented and deserving of my full attention and investigation. Will his Prezi presentation be shared with us through the Teaching with Technology website? Was unable to stay that long. The handout was fascinating. Good information.

One concern is that there was "much" to absorb; however, limiting the number of workshop possibilities was important to not feeling even more overwhelmed...yet still having good choices to meet various individuals' needs. Everything I learned there I can apply to my teaching (and other activities). Outstanding efforts to meet the technology needs of faculty. Thank you. Helped me add new, and more relevant, wrinkles to my teaching. There were more session which were relevant to my needs than I was able to attend. Nice mix of technologies and presenters. It was all very nice. It helped in sessions that assumed you didn’t know much rather than in sessions that used acronyms and assumed you already knew how to do stuff.

9. What did you like/dislike most about the showcase? What changes would you recommend for future events?  More interactive events would be good. I liked the door prizes, thanks!  Keep up the good work!  I thought the setting worked well for the numbers there. The sessions in some ways were perfect timing to keep attendees' attention and yet in other ways I wished they had been a bit slower with more demonstration. This was the strength of Technologies for Teaching and Your Library.  That you could see demos and speak individually to people.  That you could see demos and speak individually to people.  Keep the venue, the timing (including concurrent sessions, maybe adding a 4 th one if needed/possible), the atmosphere (including demos and prizes), and the

food (it’s Chartwells, but still…). Consider inviting better speakers for the two main talks. More useful/shorter keynote after lunch. Better alignment of concurrent sessions. I personally do not see the need to spend money on breakfast and lunch. No changes. Every aspect of the showcase was fantastic. Liked the day and the venue. Liked the start time and beginning with a keynote speaker. Disliked that some of the speakers were too advanced relative to where I am and what I need to know in terms of basics. I know it has nothing to do with the presentation but as a non-coffee/tea drinker I would like Pepsi available as you had last year. The concurrent sessions and the discussion after the sessions were good. It would be good to have short presentations and then more discussion time. Spread showcase over 2 days and/or longer days with more presentations. I’d like to see us offer more opportunities for peer-to-peer sharing of ideas. As always, it is sometimes difficult to choose among the topics when they are presented at the same time. Liked: faculty presentations. Disliked: luncheon keynote. The rooms were very cold and thus uncomfortable. There seemed to be a lot of connectivity issues with the presenters. More hands-on exhibits. I would have liked a little more “advanced” discussion of e-learning technologies. The tools presentations were really for beginners. Well organized and kept moving. I like that you had iClicker there. Can you get someone from Elluminate next time? I loved the sessions. The two keynote speakers were just so-so for me. Too many good presentations, not enough time to visit them all. There was a mix in some presentations/talks which made them not quite as useful as case studies and neither quite as useful as tutorials… it seemed that the short time frames might have contributed to that? Too long—could have 3 sessions and leave before lunch. Great presentations. Keep doing this regularly.

10. What topics would you like to see offered at a future showcase, conference or workshop?  More about the technologies offered specifically at FAU.  Just more up to date technology and perhaps a 2 hour workshop for some whereby faculty actually do something using computers and finish a product to use in their courses. The video presentation was so much fun and I would have enjoyed trying some ideas presented out at that time. Thank you for having such wonderful speakers this year.  "Using social networks in education" and "Creating and sharing images and videos."  A quick IRM overview of all the technologies available to faculty from FAU.  Elluminate  More discussion/demonstration of how technology is actually implemented in the various courses in the various colleges/departments. Less emphasis on online classes in particular since much of the technology could be useful to a nononline course.  Discussion groups were we interchange experiences and ideas.  Presentation of actual classes using new tech tools.  I'd like to see discussion tables on various topics so that people have time to ask questions and share ideas from their own experiences, maybe 30-40 minutes?  Technical demonstrations, time to discuss issues with other faculty, networking time.  Perhaps some hands-on stations.  Facilitating creative group work in fully online courses.  An Elluminate training session, it is very difficult to schedule them online because they have so few seats or they are offered during my classes. I am trying to cram because of personal circumstances that might require me to leave campus and I need to cover my big lecture class, so this is my own issue not being able to train on my own schedule, but I also think more people are going to want to add it, so was VERY happy with the short demo that Jenny did for us in her presentation  More specific sessions on just the use of Elluminate.  The topics offered were on target and similar ones, other ways to use them in classrooms, etc. would all be great.  A roundtable related to student outcomes, or student adoption, a display/exhibition of a "tech in action"-- so how exactly we are using the technology in our teaching practices. The feeling I came away with surprised me

 

a bit-- that tech was being used primarily among us as an extension of course management, and not so much as it creates a less teacher-centric environment. Clickers How to get students more involved.

Question 1 Comments (Overall Satisfaction): Sessions were great! Not an unqualified supporter of on line teaching so would have liked to have more balance. Too long for opening. I understand tech glitches but they were hawking a product and should have quit when the time expired. The break-out sessions were very beneficial--I learned some new concepts. Lunch was a nice treat--as were the gifts. It was embarrassing to have the technology not work for the opening speakers. I thought the topics needed to be more varied.....basic to advanced for each concurrent session. I could not stay for the luncheon but the workshops were right on target -specific and hands on help. Many things waaay over people's (my????) head. Great organization, great topics, good venue. Wished there was more. Breakout sessions were better than the embarrassing opening comments with the technology presentation that showed everything that can go wrong with a technology presentation. I really did not learn much and felt overall it was a waste of my time. I enjoyed hearing about technology I am not familiar with and getting inspired to try new things in the classroom. Only change I would make is that I would rather see the event take place during the week. Keynote speakers went over the time allocated which left too little time to interact with faculty presenters. Too little hands on time with professors about courses and advice regarding what works. Need more information about support that is available for faculty for things like videos and technical support. Written information in folders would have been appreciated regarding who works where as it is confusing regarding where Alison works versus the new designers and Center. Alison always does a great job planning these events and we appreciate her very much! The organization this time was very good. I thought it was put together well, very organized. I enjoyed the experience overall.

The first presentation was terrible and pointless. When your technology doesn't work at a teaching with technology showcase, it really says something. Question 2 Comments (Keynote): The presenter's enthusiasm and content were great, and the technology was captivating. The audio problems and resulting abridged presentation made it seem a little disjointed. Nobody checked the machine? It felt like I was in the 1990's. They needed to prepare better and do a dry-run in that room the day before. Too long for opening. I understand tech glitches but they were hawking a product and should have quit when the time expired. While their technology problems were beyond their control, overall, I found their presentation to be extremely disconnected. At times, even incoherent. I wasn't sure of their point until the very end of the session. And remain only vaguely sure I know what they were trying to say. Would have preferred a session that informed me about something I could use in my courses. I would have rather gone to a break-out session. The presentation was very disorganized--the concepts didn't flow. I don't know whether the technological glitches disoriented the speaker or whether the ideas just weren't well organized. I hope the avatar video of the "night before" wasn't an accurate representation--not the image I'd want FAU to project. Confusing to follow and not sure the learning goals of their speech were clear. They should have previewed their technology and someone should have provided mics from the onset of the presentation. I felt that the content was pandering to technology no matter the consequences. Appeared more focused to undergraduates in glorifying social media. I found the real message as frightening. Personal information and privacy is an illusion unless to attempt to control it, but there is no way to have control except to join and participate. Technology problems made it a little hard to follow but the concept of social media as an alternative to a structured learning system was interesting. He did not stay on point, nor make this very important topic relevant to his audience. He did not distinguish between managing a professional and a personal profile. Too bad, a little editing and tightening and it would have been very good. I would love to see an FAU presenter as the keynote speaker. Hard to hear - even when things worked. Speakers yapped endlessly and seemed to say nothing at all. You should NOT have pushed back the sessions' times.

I did not get the main point of the keynote address. Technical difficulties aside, the overall presentation lacked cohesion in some parts. It did achieve its overall goal of stirring up questions related to social media and formal learning dynamics. Besides technology issues, the presenters slides has too much distraction and did not engage audience. Very interesting topic though. I did not like the message of the propagandist image sanitizers. Disorganized, too much expostulation on minor points, and did not tell me anything I did not already know. I did not come to the Showcase to be entertained, I came to learn about new technology and ways that I can improve my teaching using technology. Tech issues aside... the substance of their keynote was weak. Hitting buzzwords & concepts; superficial; no discernable message. Technical glitches aside, I was rather taken aback by the final skit featuring avatars of keynote speakers and assistant provost of e-learning going out and having a night on the town. I'm no prude, but I was offended by the avatar of the assistant provost doing shots, dancing and then passing out on the dance floor. Had she been older and not svelte, I doubt the avatar would have appeared. The imagery, in the final analysis, was sexist and offensive. Even putting aside the technical difficulties with the sound problems, I thought the presentation was poorly structured. I still am not sure what the point was that the presenters were trying to convey. The presentation had a lot of gimmicky entertainment videos, but lacked substance - i.e. I didn't understand the importance of some of the stories that they told. What would have been interesting was a presentation on HOW social media could be helpful from an instructional point-of-view. Loved the subject matter but it was hard to hear in the back Lots of media and entertaining, but the technology did not work and I felt like I was attending a "show and tell" session at a convention booth. Further, they went way over their allocated time and seemed very insensitive to that fact. I am not sure they understood their audience was primarily university professors. The irony is that the technology did not cooperate the entire time. I believe they tried to cover too much ground with too many bells and whistles. Less would have probably been better. Really had a hard time following their address, not just because of the technical difficulties, but because it seemed to be perhaps geared toward a different audience. Jeff needs to enunciate more and speak louder. Even with technology breakdown, presenters did a good job Terrible

Question 3 Comments (Lunch Session): As a CEL participant, I now understand what is expected! It would have been a good session to learn how to create the avatars in her presentation. Well done, but seemed to lack a point or purpose. More volume Clarified issues with the program. I appreciated the honesty about why people were dropping from it. Second speaker wasn't able to make it because of illness. Asst provost's presentation was good, but evidence should have been presented in a more compelling manner. Signficance of SPOT scores being lower for online vs. live courses should have been discussed, and there should have been a structured Q and A built around each powerpoint slide shown Excellent information. Would like more information about specific time requirements. Also would like to know what is available to assist faculty who have on line classes but that are not of the quality we want... need revision and assistance. She did not distribute a handout and that was surprising as written information would have been very useful. It explained the process, the objectives, the amount of work. I truly appreciated it. Question 4 - Session 1 (note: not all responses identified which session they attended in the comments) “Three Ring Circus: Mind Mapping…” – Lori Rebar, Lyn LaVigne and Allison Deluca Excellent - 4 Good – 2 Fair – 2 Comments:  It was an intro to the Inspiration9 software which is not what I expected. I expected a more general coverage of the concept. Presenters did not seem very comfortable with the software or not as prepared as expected. “Elluminate Live for Dummies” – Philomena Marinaccio-Eckel Excellent – 6 Good – 5 Fair – 1 Poor – 1 Comments:  Provided enough information to convince me that I can learn how to do this with some ease.

    

She had concrete examples and others in the room had experience she did not have so they contributed - would like to have done this in a computer lab. Great discussion. Provided very useful, practical information. It was very accessible and easy to follow. I should have known that something "for dummies" would be stupid.

“Collaborative Design” – Graeme Warren, Karen Chinander and Dennis Battistella Good – 2 Fair – 1 Poor – 1 Comments:  What technology was used, there was no demo or indication that I noticed.  Did not learn anything, nothing that could be adapted to any other teaching platform; could not really address questions that extended the information to other types of classes.  Although the presentation focused on a specific course topic, I thought the presenter did a great job illustrating how a hands-on in-class activity/ group work can be transferred to an on-line setting using videos and "breakout rooms" in Collaborate. Question 5 - Session 2 (note: not all responses identified which session they attended in the comments) “Lecture Capture” – Ann Root and Mary Schindlbeck Excellent – 14 Good – 2 Comments:  Good topic, but not a possibility for those of us who teach in large lecture halls where the technology barely works as is.  I liked the way they someone from the IT dept. lecture "virtually" to illustrate the use of the technology from a student's point-of-view. Presentation was well structured. Those in attendance seemed very interested in learning about the advantages, and disadvantages of this mode of thinking.  I left the session with greater respect for Lecture Capture than I had before; since I might be involved in this technology in the future, I found this session particularly relevant to me.  Dynamic teachers; seems promising.  Well conducted, concise, cohesive, presenters were able to answer the many questions asked.  Most professional presentation - well planned and thoughtfully presented. As an administrator, would have liked a bit of budget insight too but as a faculty member, they answered all my questions.  Entertaining and informative. Well suited information for across the campus.

“Timidly Into Online Teaching” – Mary Lou Duffy and Deborah Floyd Excellent – 5 Good – 3 Fair – 1 Comments:  Both Deborah and Mary Lou show that starting slow, building on your strengths will deliver excellent results. Loved it.  These two seasoned instructors have two different approaches and to see them juxtaposed was very informative.  Mary Lou Duffy's presentation was good in that she provided simple, yet important, information about on line teaching. I liked her card. Deborah Floyd's presentation was hands on and offered useful information about how to organize a class. Offered to send materials on request.  Duffy was particularly good; Floyd was lite.  Found 1st presenter's presentation (Floyd) to be outdated, "the course in a box" experience. Presenter was also not as organized. 2nd presenter's (Duffy) presentation was much better, very organized, clearly presented and very informational. “Touch to Learn…” – Carla Rody Excellent – 1 Good – 1 Comments:  I really enjoyed it. The presenters were enthusiastic and it was something I hadn't seen yet. Question 6 - Session 3 (note: not all responses identified which session they attended in the comments) “Fantastic 4 vs. Writing Anxiety” – Maria Vasquez Excellent – 5 Good – 2 Fair – 1 Comments:  Presenter was very organized. Presented concrete, useful information. Definitely came away with ideas to use in my DL class. Wish we could have had more information on specifics to use ourselves.  Well presented, good ideas.  I gathered a few good ideas to incorporate for online teaching in the future. “Using CPR in STEM Classes” – Joseph Caruso Excellent - 3 Good – 2

Fair – 1 Poor – 1 Comments:  The technology was interesting but how do we use it at FAU. There is a cost involved for the software and we have no money.  While the talk focused more on "critical thinking" activities in the classroom, and less on the CPR technology, I thoroughly enjoyed the insight provided about how to improve critical thinking skills through course instruction. “Designing and Using a Digital Textbook” – Tim Lenz and Mirya Holman Excellent – 4 Good – 2 Fair – 1 Comments:  Interesting; worked through substantive issues.  I was hoping to hear more about the technological process of creating it.  Interesting. Question 7 (Sessions relevant to my needs): You need to offer 3 levels of presentations for each session: basic, mid, advanced topics Not much in the way of practical sessions. Faculty members sharing their techniques and giving insight to what worked and what didn't is very helpful. As an Electronic Resources Librarian, I do not always see how faculty interact with technology. This will inform my organization of the Library's electronic resources. The Showcase was targeted primarily to those who know little about technology. The sessions need to be differentiated based on ability with and knowledge of technology. Except for iClicker, none of the vendors were relevant to my needs. My department has no budget, so having a vendor pushing catalogs at me full of software that I would have to pay for on my own is not useful. I was hesitant to attend based on the agenda, but really wanted to see the presentation on Lecture Capture. I will not attend in the future unless substantive changes are made. I agree that it was useful in some areas and I know a lot of work went into the preparations. But, the fact that the first session went so very long and we had to rush the other sessions caused me to not rate the overall conference as high as I would have liked. I prefer the hands on interaction with professors who have taught these classes as we need to learn the "how to" about on line teaching. Question 8 (Like/Dislike Most and Changes): More balance, cost analysis, copyright issues

More hands-on technology work, talk about how to use features of blackboard in different disciplines, perhaps a round table approach would be better. Stick to schedule. Start earlier, have all three sessions before lunch Liked the variety of sessions Use the time spent for the morning whole-group presentation to offer another set of break-out sessions--or to all some break out sessions to be offered twice so more people can attend more of them. Needed more basic information on blackboard.....we are all still learning.....each session should have had a blackboard discussion I suggest more hands on practical sessions. How about IRM providing a session or two. Maybe 3 sessions on Blackboard (newbies, average users, and advanced). iclicker person sitting at table teaches nothing. In the past few showcases, the keynote presenters have been the weakest link. If it is a company, they are hawking their products or services. We do better when using in house expertise. Workshops. Sorry I missed the eLearning Instructor Certification session. Hands on examples of what people are doing is what I appreciate most. I would like to have more handouts. A macro perspective on FAU's role in this area of educational delivery. Would love to make it a bit longer and include another concurrent session that could maybe facilitate repeats of earlier sessions of the day e.g the Smart Board session was of interest to many and would have been a good one to offer twice. Also maybe include more visiting presenters in the concurrent sessions. Opening session with tested technology. Less esoteric and entertaining presentations, and more substance. For example, iClicker could have done a presentation on the new clickers; how about one on the newest features in BB9? Integration of Social Media in the classroom environment? Using smart phones in the classroom? Food was good and sessions were informative The most disappointing part of the showcase was the keynote address. I liked the concurrent session format - it allows participants to choose what they are most interested in learning about. I thought the length of each session was perfect (45 minutes). I didn't have a chance to talk with vendors. Perhaps for the breakfast/ check-in part, have this be more of a reception-style breakfast rather than sit-down, so that vendors can speak with attendees - maybe even have the vendors set up within the main room? Hard to know what will work. Then, have some time after the keynote address before the sessions start to again have more time to speak with vendors - maybe even have each vendor briefly (i.e. 2 minutes) introduce themselves to let everyone know what they have to offer (I emphasize a BRIEF introduction).

I liked the showcase. I would like to see sessions repeated so that one would not have to choose only one Keynote speakers need to stick to their schedule and focus on information that is useful to faculty, not flashy showcase type videos promoting their ideas. If we cannot do it, then it is not useful. Need more hand on work about the technology of using Blackboard such as how to do the videos and other features. More panels with professors showcasing their classes with "how to" features. Introduce all of the staff members both at the breakfast and lunch talks. We would profit from putting together faces, names, and areas of expertise. You are our unsung heroes!!! And also briefly publicly introduce the vendors and the products (just the gist). I really liked the laid back feeling of the sessions the presenters were all very friendly and open to discussion. Needless to say ... have the audio working properly. I find it hard to believe that the tech people spent the time to have smart-phone scans for prizes but didn't 1) make the technology worked or 2) have the whole thing recorded for later watching. An example of the technology at FAU in general. Question 9 (Satisfaction with the venue): The dining area is not really set up for having presentations with an engaged audience. The seating was too tight and the clanking of dishes was distracting. Very crowded at tables. Hot. More space would prevent the need to double-up sessions. I never knew the center had those breakout rooms. The facilities were roomy, cool (but not cold), and bright. lighting and technology were suspect....... Main room has horrible acoustics. Speakers cannot be heard. Clean up technical glitches The main room was crowded and had poor technology Breakout rooms were very good Wonderful location. Central and terrfic venue. I thought it was kind of a small space for the amount of people who attended. It was hard to navigate the room during the breakfast and lunch. Question 10 (interest in having an expanded event to cover best practices in teaching – which day):

I have personally organized many conferences, workshops, etc. and know that it's not easy to put together an event that hits different levels of expertise and that keeps people's interest. You, I believe, achieved this, and I commend everyone that was involved in the planning and execution. I look forward to attending future sessions and to inviting others who I know will Audience should be more informed regardind the system requirements. i.e. for Mac users only. • Web 2.0 unfortunately required joining lots of websites and most applications could be duplicated in MS Office already. • Dr. Atlas' lecture did not match the description at all. • Great over all set up. • Staff were very helpful. • Promotional materials could have been more Only thing that could make it better would be to have the sessions repeated so that one could attend more sessions. The staff -- especially the IRM staff and registration persons -- was excellent! As Broward College University College Library faculty, I was thrilled to be given an opportunity to present at this year's conference. My colleagues and I were very impressed with the way the conference was organized and presented. Also, the event was successful for me as a networking opportunity. Thank you for the opportunity and we look forward to many more I felt that one class was too short, because it had so much information in it. But the other sessions were just about right. Excellent Job --Very Professional I truly enjoyed the day, and learned a great deal. Your attention to detail was noticeable in that everything seemed to run seamlessly. Kudos to all of the event organizers for such a well-run and meaningful event. well done! Dr. Fernandez and his staff need to be commended for organizing a worthwhile and enjoyable showcase. Great presentation topics. I wish that I could have attended more sessions. It would also have been nice if each session had been just a little bit longer (maybe 10 minutes longer). There were some great questions and good discussions and it would have been nice to have had a bit more time to continue that dialog. I realize that the round tables were supposed to provide Lunch/roundtable break was a bit too long. The best presentation was the WOW WEB 2.0 where we got to actually go to the websites and do some practical work. Perhaps more practical sessions would be great to add. Also, the session could have been at least 1/2 hour longer. What a fantastic event! It was incredibly informative and well-organized. The food was excellent and the setting was wonderful! Everyone was very helpful, welcoming, and professional. I really want to commend BCS for putting together such a useful and inspiring event. From the multiple reminders sent ahead of time, to the online registration and information, as well as the actual day coordination, they did a terrific job! I only wish more deans would have encouraged their faculty to attend and participate. I know some people had to leave because they had a faculty meeting...such a rewarding university event should have been supported more enthusiastically by faculty members. A suggestion for next year could be to broaden the presentations to include administrative uses of technology to engage and support students. That way, you could include Great job. Please do it again next year! I would like to see and hear the sessions that I missed. When will this be available? The seminar was excellent. Thank you. I Great job. Some of the sessions were more focused on the teaching or were too specific to the one particular discipline, not enough on the actual use of technology. What I found most useful were conversations with colleagues. Very nice event overall.
