ECEA PLEASE IGNORE EI2G EMAIL

[Johnson, Mark C]

All - I meant to send this message to the ECE Instructional Innovation Group email list, not the ECE Ambassadors list. However you might find the article mentioned in the email interesting.

Subject: EI2G: getting started - Mon Feb 6 2:30, EE118 - topic, too much Group Think?

EI2G members - 

It looks as if Monday 2:30-4:00 is the most favorable time for EI2G meetings this semester. There is one frequently involved member who can't come at that time, but all the other times have even more regular participants who can't come. Here are the dates:

Jan 30, March 5, April 2, April 30

Agenda,

Discussion of "The Rise of the New Groupthink" an article that Joanne directed me to. Your assignment - read this before the meeting. 

http://www.nytimes.com/2012/01/15/opinion/sunday/the-rise-of-the-new-groupthink.html?_r=1&scp=1&sq=The%20Rise%20of%20the%20New%20Groupthink&st=Search

Other items - what should EI2G do this semester? On topic I thought would be of interest is to get someone from teaching & learning technologies in ITaP to update us on their latest instructional offerings & I could comment on my experiences so far with the pilot of Blackboard Learn which is the next version of Blackboard that is coming. 

thanks

Mark
