The Survey of Higher Education Faculty: Use of Educational Technology
Primary Research Group, Jan 2010, Pages: 130
The Survey of Higher Education Faculty: Use of Educational Technology, ISBN 1-57440-142-4 presents data on how higher education faculty in the United States and Canada view the usefulness of college library technology centers and other forms of educational technology such as course management systems, clickers, document cameras, electronic and interactive whiteboards, in-class use of video and internet access, PowerPoint and other technologies. The report also presents data on faculty evaluation of the effectiveness of their college's information technology training for faculty, and information on how faculty view the teaching distance learning courses.
The report presents the results of a survey of more than 550 higher education faculty in the United States and Canada. Data is presented in the aggregate and for 12 criteria including academic field, size of college, type of college, academic title and other factors.
Just a few of the report’s many finding are that:
- 26.51% of American faculty say that they use the library computer labs frequently while only 14.29% of Canadian faculty say the same.
- More than a third of faculty in the sample said that in using their college’s course management system they were either pretty much lost or that they know a little, a few basics?
- 34.83% of the faculty in the sample have ever used electronic whiteboards.
- 53.42% of those sampled said that they would like to teach a DL course if the pay were equivalent to that of a traditional class.
- Among faculty in various disciplines, faculty in psychology and counseling were the most supportive of PowerPoint in the classroom and more than 72% considered its use highly beneficial.
- Faculty in computer science/math/engineering were the most supportive of documents cameras in the classroom.
- In-class internet access had strong support among faculty. Less than 8% thought it harmful or worthless.
