Exploring Faculty Experiences With Technology-Supported Collaboration in College Classrooms

Abstract

This chapter seeks to offer detailed pedagogical information on using technology tools to help students collaborate to achieve their learning goals, and will present empirical insights of faculty experiences, perceptions, and expectations, which will help others see how technology tools have been instrumental for student collaboration in college classrooms and how faculty members conceptualize the integration of technology into curriculum. Throughout this chapter, the authors summarized the strategies and offer overarching guidelines for using collaborative teaching methods to improve motivation and learning in the classroom.
