| Perspectives Changes in Online Teaching and Learning
The growth of the Web has brought rapid change to higher education. Calloway summarizes the impact of new technologies on teaching and surveys some pedagogical practices that have become typical across the board in online learning. Calloway first looks at the kinds of activities that typically take place in an online asynchronous environment, or that such an environment makes possible. He then takes note of the role the instructor has assumed in this setting.
Nathaniel Roy Calloway is Academic Director, Technology Management and Business Curriculum Development, and Assistant Professor of Accounting and Business Management, in the Department of Business and Management Studies, Undergraduate Programs, University of Maryland University College (UMUC). His career has included administrative and management positions in both federal and state government, educational consulting, corporate business, and information technology. His teaching career spans 29 years. Since 1988 he has been a faculty member at UMUC; in 1997 he developed and taught the university's first Web-based education course. He has also coordinated the development of a complete Web-based accounting curriculum under a Sloan Foundation grant. This project is a joint initiative of the Center for the Virtual University and the Center for Teaching and Learning at UMUC. © 1996-2005 University of Maryland University College |
