Hi Andrew
I am a researcher and educator at ANU however i have facilitated both online and face-t-face in the MBT program when i was at UNSW. I am interested in this discussion focused on business education. I am also trying to incorporate technology to better engage the students in learning ..why i am taking part here. i have been in higher education since 2000, previously in industry. At ANU we use Moodle and i have tried to incorporate technology in how i interact with students, deliver my face to face classes, and design student assessment, including using business simulations like StratSim, and currently working with colleagues at USydney to design a simulation for triple bottom line sustainability impacts; have also had my students work with Arts – film students to produce films as an assessable item ( their work can be seen through the link on my home page – http://cbe.anu.edu.au/people/rsm/gary-buttriss/ ). this would be the most successful i have been in engaging students in their learning and the outcomes were far greater than anticipated – and i dont just mean the quality of their films.
i am keen to hear how others are confronting the same issues of student engagement and technology assisted learning
cheers
Gary
