Faculty Guide - m-Learning Initiative

This document describes the emerging iPad initiative in the Mental Health Program


m-Learning Initiative

The Mental Health program is engaging in the development of a 1:1 iPad Program. Starting in the Spring of 2016, every student in the MHT program will need to have an iPad.

At this point we are in the process of creating course content that will utilize the device, but we need your help.

  • All teaching Faculty will be issued an iPad through the Learning Commons (unless they own one already)
  • The Learning Commons on the Alfond and Fairfield campuses both house a number of iPads that can be borrowed by students.
  • Face to Face Classes
    • Faculty who are teaching a face to face class developed at least 2 unique in-class activites utilizing the iPad.
  • Online Classes
    • The online classes are largely already designed with Lesson Plans.
    • Faculty who are teaching an online class developed at least 5 modifications of existing Lesson Plans that utilize the iPad and/or iPad technologies.
    • These ideas will be examined and selected for inclusion in the standard course.
  • Special Assignments
    • All the Special Assignments that are currently in the program will be revised to take advantage of the iPad.
    • Any ideas on this are welcome and you may be contacted for feedback and participation in the process.

By the Spring of 2016 we want to have modified face-to-face and online curricula that take advantage of the iPad. We also want to develop a guide (likely to be included in these pages) for face-to-face faculty on the use of the iPad.
