Abstract

In José Bowen's article, "Teaching Naked: Why Removing Technology from Your Classroom Will Improve Student Learning," it was time for his college to jettison the technology from the technology-rich classrooms. Was the low-fi approach met with success or failure from the viewpoint of the IT department and the faculty? This session will present a case study of technology removal from the classroom.
