potential issue.4 Legal IssuesPreviously the capabilities of cloud based systems and the impact upon campus IT departmentshave been discussed. These issues, however, are not the only issues faculty members must beconcerned about when using cloud computing systems.4.1 FERPAFrom a faculty standpoint, the largest area of concern is FERPA. FERPA, the FamilyEducational Rights and Privacy Act, governs what information may be disclosed by facultymembers and to whom it may be disclosed. With certain exceptions, it essentially means afaculty members may not speak directly about a student’s achievement or disclose samplestudent assignments. It also places restrictions on how data is to be stored and who may haveaccess to retained data.The challenge of FERPA

maintain quality while maximizing university resources.Meeting the Online Growth Demands The research on how educational institutions are handling the growth of onlineenrollments is minimal. Burruss, Billings, Brownrigg, Skiba, and Connors (2009) remarked onclass size and “minimal research at the postsecondary level” (p. 38). The authors go on to saythat the number of online students is increasing and with a shortage of faculty class sizes areincreasing. Colwell and Jenks (2004) added “Faculty can face pressures from administration to“maximize” class sizes in online courses to make them more efficient or profitable” (p. 1). There is concern from educators about the quality of education when class sizes areincreased; however, the

explore these perceptions to understand the reasons behind the lowrate of implementation in engineering programs. In addition, concerns about tool andtechnology issues and their applicability to engineering distance education could play arole. Therefore, the following research questions are proposed to investigate faculty andstudent perceptions of online education: 1. What are the perceptions of engineering faculty and students about online engineering courses? 2. What are the perceptions of engineering faculty and students about different technologies and educational methods employed in engineering courses delivered online?MethodData was collected via an online survey delivered to a convenience sample of

These students either transferred into the engineering school, or possibly their tablet PCbroke and they have not replaced it. Konthaneth et al. 16 surveyed the engineering educationfaculty at Virginia Tech to determine what motivated the engineering education faculty to adopttablet PCs. Their results suggest that to successfully diffuse tablets throughout the college ofengineering will require increasing faculty perception of the advantages, compatibility, andobservability of tablet PCs, and at the same time reducing the complexity of tablet

Background LectureTools was built largely because of an interest to extend Mazur’s Peer Instructionapproach the field of climate studies. It began as an exploration of how clickers could be used toinvite student responses on issues of concern to global change. However, we quickly discoveredthat clickers, while an excellent first step, allowed for only a limited range of questions. The firststep in the evolution of the tools described here was to develop a simple web-based tool wherestudents could answer multiple choice questions, as has been done with clickers, but also withimage-based questions that were not possible with

Those who go into one of the IT fields usually find themselves in an ever-changingenvironment, as the languages and technologies experienced as an undergraduate quicklybecome obsolete. As a consequence, in order to survive and prosper in the corporateenvironment, one must be able to learn new languages and technologies essentially on their own.Exposure to certification books provides an insight to a systematic

These students may also benefit from one-on-one support or interactions in thesmall group setting from peer tutors, teaching assistants, or faculty who could accommodate theknowledge gap in programming skills for those students who are relatively new to programming.Among our consented students, 53% reported being Latinx, Chicana/o, or

The planning includes tutor preparation and attention to technical issues. In addition, faculty concerns and special needs can be considered. If a student seeks tutoring and finds it lacking due to technical difficulties or unprepared tutors, the student is not likely to seek help again. The student may also broadcast negative information about the tutoring service to peers or faculty members. Once the reputation of an innovation is damaged in this way, it may be difficult to regroup and recover.Software/Technical
