Project Description
We are trying to identify how students are using technology around campus, and specifically within classrooms. We have collected information from the registrar on classroom usage, but this data is not always reliable. We also have a small student group that meets to discuss what student computing should look like (e.g., should we have computer labs? What technology do students want/need?)
Technology or Computational Component
The computational or technological component could vary depending on the students' skillset. If they are talented at analyzing data, we have a myriad of data sources to draw from and analyze using Excel, Nvivo, or other tools. If they are talented at survey design, they could help design and develop surveys that could be distributed to students. If they are talented at presentation development, they could help us craft presentations to showcase to students. If they are talented as research, they could research different types of student computing options.
