Showcasing the experience of practitioners with technology-enhanced teaching and learning

This paper describes a research project, which seeks to showcase the experience base of practitioners with technology-enhanced teaching and learning. A particular focus of this investigation is how the use of information and communications technology is influencing teaching practices and students' approaches to learning at the University of Melbourne. This investigation is a naturalistic inquiry into the experience base of academics who have been engaged in technology-enhanced teaching and learning. Our goal has been to look beyond objective data and to ascertain how information and communications technology is fundamentally influencing the nature of the teaching and learning transactions. As such we are interested in the 'untold' stories of practitioners and participants in this work. Data that is collected is archived on a website that is maintained by the Department of Teaching, Learning and Research Support. This website is designed to be a dynamic archive that is maintained on a continuing basis and used in a variety of ways, including use in faculty development activities.
