Development costs for student help are covered up to 100 hours LSS provides two semesters of support for participants, especially consulting, and maintenance of IN TIME hardware and software. Normally, LSS staff does not perform actual development of course materials. Exceptions might include video segments, or computer animation or simulations. However, exceptions are made by arrangement, often for a fee. This program is not intended generally to be a source for computing hardware, although laptop computers are provided to faculty to develop materials and to be used in the multimedia classroom.
Laptops remain with faculty participants at the end of program period.
Back to IN TIME main page. While the impetus for exploring a program such as this comes from the remodeling of Social Science 6210 and Van Vleck B130, other classrooms have been remodeled for multimedia capabilities. Participants will be encouraged to focus on three or four specific class periods, or on a handful of specific presentations for multimedia development rather trying to rework an entire course. The intent of the program is to help faculty be able to create their own materials. Student help is not intended to replace direct faculty preparation and involvement.
