ELP 537SEM - Ed. Tech, Policy, and Planning

Institutions of Higher Education are some of the oldest in western society, with organizational structures and traditions dating back almost 1,000 years. As with any old, large complex institution change is often difficult and sometimes even shunned. Yet within the span of a single generation, ours, technologies have been introduced and incorporated into these institutions to the point where their very mission is coming into question. This course will investigate the various educational technologies currently in use, the policies that define their abuse, guide their use and finally the strategic planning methodologies used to incorporate future change.
