| The W.M. Keck Foundation awarded Wesleyan a significant grant to establish a comprehensive information technology teaching infrastructure. The grant provides funds for 5 inter-related initiatives: | |
| Located on the first floor of Fisk Hall, the lab houses 7 powermacs, 7 pcs, and a wide variety of humanities software and scanning peripherals. | |
|
W.M. Keck Language Media Center
|
To be located in the existing Language Lab in Fisk Hall, the Language Media Center will provide modern, computer-based instructional facilities for language instruction, as well as traditional analog audio and video services. |
| Through the use of laptop computers and projection equipment, faculty can use computer-based multimedia materials in their classrooms. | |
| Two separate programs comprise this component of the initiative: a pedagogical project grant program and a mentor program. | |
| During the course of the academic year, Humanities departments
will host speakers from outside Wesleyan who will demonstrate their use
of technology in teaching, and give small workshops on how to develop pedagogically
useful resources using technology.
