Liberal Learning Principles and Classroom Technology

At the Media Giraffe Project Conference, I participated in a panel on podcasting in education with Liz LeDoux and Mark Frydenberg from Bentley College. Mark recently wrote a paper with his colleague Angelique Davi that was published in Merlot’s Journal of Online Learning and Teaching.

MERLOT is a free and open resource designed primarily for faculty and students of higher education. The MERLOT Journal of Online Learning and Teaching (JOLT) is a peer-reviewed, online publication addressing the scholarly use of multimedia resources in education.”

Their paper, “Integrating Liberal Learning Principles into the Information Technology Classroom” is online here:

. . . the authors argue that by creating opportunities for students to apply their technology learning to use new media as a tool for communication and creative expression, students will develop skills that will embrace both technology and liberal learning inside as well as outside the classroom.”

Mark will be presenting his findings later this month at the Berkman Center.
