Purpose

Research Question:
How can the College's Graduate/Professional Studies programs be enhanced or reconfigured in order to meet the changing needs in Northeast Ohio?

This is an attempt to capture my research process and to share my research findings with as many people as possible. My project goal is to research workforce needs and economic development projections in Northeast Ohio in order to provide recommendations for program enhancement, particularly in Graduate and Professional Studies.

I chose to conduct my project in this public manner in order to explore one aspect of the type of technologically integrated learning for which I am advocating. I have not blogged before, so bear with me.

Early posts merely reflect information gathered. As I progress, my later posts will be more analytical and synthetic. I invite any and all comments, thoughts, musings, questions, and connections. The more personal input I receive, the more meaningful my recommendations will become.

If I have learned anything in the past few weeks, it is certainly that there are many important things that I just don't know, so help me out if you see the need.

Also on the OLN site are some resources for professional development that appear to be very useful for self-education. The TeachU initiative offers webinars for educators. These webinars focus on emerging technologies and how to integrate them into pedagogy that will enhance student learning.
