It is anticipated that virtually every college and university will be able to apply the results of this project. Cisco e-Learning Engine Initiative . This project will explore the potential application of an e-learning engine currently being de veloped by the Cisco Learning Institute . With ECU and UNCA taking the lead, UNC is partnering with Cisco in a beta implementation of the new e-learning engine. The Cisco e-Learning Engine is unique in that it uses prescriptive learning.

Two groups of campus professionals teaching and learning center directors and instructional technology professionals from throughout the UNC system came together May 30 June 1 in Boone for an Instructional Technology Retreat hosted by the UNC TLT Collaborative. The main purpose of the retreat was to allow the campus professionals who are most directly involved in delivering TLT services, but who rarely meet and talk with each other, to discuss common issues, share information and strengthen peer communications across the UNC system. Specifically, the funding will enable 10 of our campuses to purchase Flashlight tools for assessment associated with the use of technology in education.
