Development of an Advanced Online Learning Classroom Technology Laboratory: An “Incubator” for Next Generation Learning - Jacqueline A. Gilbert, JOLT
This article explains the history of an Advanced Computer Technology (ACT) laboratory at Middle Tennessee State University Honors College. The ACT laboratory serves as an incubator classroom, and as a testing and experimental learning environment for faculty and students. Interviews with four administrators involved with the planning and procurement of the room (along with five faculty who had actual experience in teaching with the new equipment) are provided. This article details the history of the room’s inception, along with a list of advantages and suggestions for improvement from faculty who have taught classes in this space. An actual schematic of the current room is provided to help readers envision its capabilities.
