Camtasia and Blackboard: Distributing library instruction to multiple general chemistry lab sections
Melinda Box, Instructor, Chemistry
Project Description:
Melinda Box and Anne Langley (Chemistry Librarian and Adjunct Professor of Chemistry) work together to instruct students taking chemistry courses in successful use of chemistry information technology. They will be creating short videos demonstrating how to use various online resources. These videos will be made available in Blackboard for student and teaching assistant use. The video demonstrations will free the instructors from having to do the exact same demonstrations for each laboratory section, while providing information that students can refer to later, and will allow the instructors to provide more personalized attention to students.
Project start date: 6/18/2008
Funding awarded: $450
