U.S. and China share quest to enhance learning through technology

The U.S. and China are often assumed to be at odds or in competition. They recently came together to explore how technology can enhance student learning. Reporting on the atmosphere at the conference, Ray Schroeder commented, "Clearly the attending faculty members from universities across Asia Europe and North America valued the qualities and potential of rich media to support teaching and learning. We talked pedagogy, engagement, adaptive delivery and related strategies that could best be floated on these vehicles of technology. Simulations and immersion activities were among the key applications most frequently discussed."
