Have to motivate faculty to change. Faculty, in collaborating, is not putting an individual stamp on a course. Faculty who are independent thinkers fear technology will change this. That is the trademark of smaller, liberal arts colleges and a selling point verses the larger universities. Technology becomes easier to use and only then can faculty adapt to using templates.
Templates reduce and enormous time commitment.
Is a challenge to engage faculty in discussions about learning. When they are at the same institution for a long time they need outside contact. Depending on the faculty and the institutional culture, technology is valued at different levels. It can be threatening to non-technical faculty who sit on review committees. Are the lone rangers or new adaptors.
