• we are currently in Phase II of this CCLI program, $500k for 3 years (the “expansion” phase)
• our current focus is on sophomore-level engineering mechanics• to move to Phase III of the CCLI program (“national dissemination”), we are
working to build partnerships:• engineering mechanics instructors at other universities [more participants in
the same educational space (“blended”)]• engineering distance learning instructors here and at other universities
[participants in new engineering education spaces]• companies who need knowledge archiving solutions for retiring employees,
or who have large (global) training initiatives [participants in new education spaces]
• instructors in other disciplines teaching “blended” courses here and at other universities [more participants in non-engineering disciplines]

Participating in the HigherEd 2.0 program
• can I participate? [yes]• what’s expected of me?
• use some of the HigherEd 2.0 technologies and approaches described today in your learning environment
• deploy some of the assessment instruments we are developing• participate in the evolution and development of the program
• what’s in it for me?• we can provide some funds for hardware and software purchases• we will provide technical support• you benefit from the collective (and evolving) wisdom of the group of
participating instructors• you appear as a co-author on any publications resulting from the program
which include data from your course• how many new participants do you need? [about 3]

What’s the selection process?
• step 1: you fill out a 1-page “execution plan” detailing your expected use of the technologies in your course, and your intuition about how it will enhance student learning outcomes
• step 2: you also fill out a resource (funding) request, indicating the types of hardware and software resources you would need to execute your plan (you can develop this list in consultation with us)
• step 3: you send us the plan, and be prepared for some brief further discussions and clarifications
• step 4: we will review the applications and choose new participants based upon criteria including (but not limited to)
• ability to diversify our disciplinary profile and strengthen our assessment data (i.e., should not be a very small class)
• ability to diversify our educational setting (e.g., clinical, distance learning, continuing education, performance, etc.)
• amount of funding requested
