About Us
This is a new blog that has come about after several months of informal conversation at Penn. We hope that this will be an online community where we can share good ideas, lessons learned, resources and tips and encourage each other to continue exploring instructional technology.
Some of us have made a commitment to post regularly about personal and professional experiences with new media technologies. We welcome you to add your insights to the mix - by commenting on our posts and authoring posts of your own.
We expect this blog to focus on engaging students through technology. We look forward to posts that include suggestions on software, hardware, devices, web resources and pedagogical techniques for integrating technology into classroom and out-of-class activities.
