Dr. Gatteau discusses his experience in converting a face to face class to an accelerated format. His biggest challenge was the loss of student behavioral queues about their grasp of the material. Rick chose Blackboard discussion groups to provide a format to replace face to face discussions. He designs discussion questions so that they facilitate in-depth dialog and analysis, and not just regurgitation of information. Dr. Gatteau found that all students were engaged by the online discussions and the quality of the discussion was higher that he had experienced in his face to face classes. He uses class participation points as part of the grade for the course. These points are greater in his online course than in face to face as the effort required is greater. He also requires students to respond to other student’s posts. He finds that it is important to establish rules of communication up front – civility and respect in discussions etc. Student online presentations can be challenging and require improvement in technology and writing skills. His students use online survey tools to evaluate group performance and presentations and the Blackboard grading center to collect and distribute student assignments. Online courses have advantages and challenges. They provide flexibility for both the faculty member and the students. However, expect online courses to require multiple design iterations to become fully mature – especially for a first time teacher.

The Innovations in Education project features Stony Brook faculty and staff using innovative approaches and best practices in teaching, and applications of educational technology that have had a positive effect on student learning. Video interviews are 15 to 30 minutes long and focus primarily on faculty members. The last section of each interview is usually with a professional staff member who can provide support to faculty interested in adopting the pedagogy or technology discussed during each show. Video and pictures of the application of the innovation or best practice in the learning environment are included in each show where possible. The interviews are intended to provide a balanced look at both the benefits and challenges of adopting a particular approach to teaching and learning support. Guests are asked questions such as:* What made you dissatisfied with your previous approach?* How did you change the structure and delivery of your course?* How did the students react? * What were your biggest challenges?* How do you feel about your teaching now?* What are you planning next for your course?In addition to the video interviews many of our innovative faculty are interviewed and articles written about their teaching approach and philosophy.

Joe Lauher, a professor of chemistry at Stony Brook, describes how he and a team of his colleagues transformed their organic chemistry course. This course is taught to over a thousand students each year in a lecture hall that seats 560 students. Joe discusses how the introduction of clickers has engaged his students by forcing them to think about and discuss the content with fellow students during the large lectures. In particular, he discusses how the questions posed to the class need to be written to generate discussion. In additon, he and his team have used portable computer equipment to enable them to leave the stage and mingle with the audience while still controlling the presentation and writing on the screen. He discusses how "teaching from the floor" has changed the intimacy of the class and his knowledge of the students. Joe is joined by Nancy Wozniak, a learning architect within the TLT Faculty Center. Nancy talks about active learning and how The Faculty Center can provide support for making their courses more student centric.Part 2: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z_Clyp4JIfoPart 3: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IgEsr5e0JRg
