Sessions at Building Bridges for eLearning have been developed to help provide key insights into the implementation of educational technology. We also will be delving into ways educators can gauge how effective they have been in integrating technology into their classrooms, according to Harwood, who is also an associate professor of English and information sciences and technology. Participants in the conference may also involve themselves in an ongoing community of learning. This virtual community had its beginning on the World Wide Web in the wake of the 2000 Faculty Academy. Currently, the Web pages contain presentations from the inaugural conference, news of potential funding sources, links, and a bibliography of source material.
Plans call for the creation of additional features such as on-line discussions.
