\nThe purpose of this initiative is to enable University of Richmond faculty members to explore, and ultimately utilize mobile technology in their teaching. Since the beginning of this program, we have found that incorporating these mobile technologies can enhance the student educational experience as well as the potential to aid in research and personal productivity. These mobile technologies certainly provide for interesting and unique opportunities in higher education.<\/p>\n
\nThis program is intended to support faculty members interested in integrating a mobile device, apps, and web-based tools into a specific course that they teach. For those accepted into the Mobile Device Initiative, the Center for Teaching, Learning, and Technology will distribute the mobile technology to faculty for one full year. The students participating in the course for which the application was submitted will receive the mobile device for one semester.
\nWhen drafting your application, faculty are strongly encouraged to collaborate with their CTLT\u00a0Liaison<\/a>. Your CTLT Liaison is available to work with you to further develop and implement classroom activities during the semester.<\/p>\nProcedure<\/h2>\n
\n
Process<\/h2>\n
\nOwnership of the mobile device will rest with the University. Faculty and students will need to sign a return\/fine agreement agreeing to return the devices or be fined for the cost of repair or replacement.
\nFaculty and students will be able to download free apps, however additional apps for purchase will be the responsibility of the individual faculty\/student, and made through his or her personal iTunes account.\u00a0 A $50 iTunes gift card will be provided to each participating faculty member.
\nThe CTLT has inventory for supporting 2-3\u00a0classes using iPads. \u00a0The iPads have front facing and rear facing cameras and contain WiFi access only (no cellular data). Please contact your CTLT\u00a0\u00a0liaison<\/a>\u00a0for more device dependent information.<\/p>\n<\/h2>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
