On Friday, November 8, IET Mediaworks released a Call for Proposals for Winter and Spring 2003 participation in the Educational Technology (ET) Partners Program. Each ET partner is a trained, experienced, undergraduate student who will be assigned for 10 hours/week for one quarter to a faculty member who wishes to learn how to use information technology in teaching. To date, 30 faculty members from various campus organizations and departments have been able to participate in the program. Many faculty, particularly those with a specific course-related technology project in mind, have seen in this program an opportunity for professional development and one-on-one technology training.
The application deadline for Winter 2003 is Thursday, November 21, 2002. Applications are also being accepted for Spring 2003.
