"Understanding how students use technology...."

This was a talk given this afternoon by John O'Brien, Ph.D., Academic VP, Century College. He presented at Metropolitan State: "Understanding how students use technology provides the basis for understanding their changing expectations for instruction and campus services." Besides a charming presence and animated wit, O'Brien offered instruction and resources for our audience. I found it especially helpful because it ties in so beautifully with '23 Things'.

I don't know if you can find a video of John's presentation or one similar to it, but here is his reference website; the website, http://johnobrienpersonal.googlepages.com/webography , is all references used in his talk and may be totally disconnected out of context. Explore, and I'm sure you'll find stimulating information for thought and discussion.
