Hello all,
I teach biology at a small community college, Prince William Sound CC, which is affiliated with the UAA system, but an independently accredited CC. We have about 100 full time students. There are two branch campuses and a number of outreach sites. We serve a very large geographic area. I use Polycom (ITV) to reach my students at as many as 3 different sites, while teaching out of Valdez. My courses are all Blackboard enhanced. I've used Blackboard at 3 different colleges for the last 5 years and have done 2 online classes using it. The biggest challenge I have currently is how to teach live science labs at the outreach campuses, where there are no facilities and I may only have one student. I'm hoping to learn many new skills in this class.

Otterspotter, your name is cool. Looking forward to working with you in the iTeach course. I read an article in the Chronicle of Higher Education just last week about a prof who used short digital videos made from screen captures. Wonder if you could adapt hu idea for your own work doing science labs for students? You can read the article here:

or search for "Film School" in the Chronicle of Higher Education May 2, 2008 edition.
