Anyone viewing it should be able to understand the essence of what you did and how it worked without any further explanation. For at least part of the time that the poster is on display, we hope that you, or someone familiar with your project, will be available to provide further details for those who wish to have more information.
Posters should be 42" x 60".

Several academic departments have been choosing to do Angel Online course evaluations for quite some time. This presentation will share how one department has streamlined the online course evaluations process. You will learn how the ANGEL software provides expedited information to the faculty member in time for planning the next semester. Come prepared to have the features demonstrated and see how the data can be collected using this process for completing online evaluations.
Classroom Attitudes: Getting Beyond Us vs. Them
Attempting to move beyond "us vs. them" thinking, the discussion will focus on instructor and student perceptions of classroom expectations and behaviors including engagement, participation, class preparation, and technology use. Emphasis will be placed on finding ways to create a classroom climate that is friendly and fair to both students and instructors.
