Why a faculty learning community?
FLCs promote the goals of teaching and learning centers by:
•building a community of people interested in issues of teaching and learning
•enabling cross-disciplinary conversations and collaborations about teaching
•supporting and encouraging good teaching
![Page 4: Statewide IT Conference September 29, 2011 iPads for Teaching and Learning](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022070400/56649e625503460f94b5da68/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Why a faculty learning community?
•providing an opportunity to give and receive feedback about teaching in a safe, supportive environment
•facilitating the dissemination of best practices beyond the FLC to the wider university community

Why an iPad FLC?
The iPad FLC promoted the use of innovative teaching practices by the faculty participants by:
•creating the expectation that the participants were going to try something new in their classes
•enabling the participants to share their knowledge and ideas and define common goals
•establishing a safe, supportive environment in which even “failures” were seen as informative

Challenges
Being first is hard!
• No research out there
• Unexpected wireless problems
• Where do you start?
Fighting the design?
• iPad was designed as a personal device
• iPad was designed more as a consumption device

It’s (still) all about the apps…
• “Productivity” apps seem to be best suited for higher education
• We need app developers to sit down with faculty members
• Finding apps is still really difficult
• What’s the next big thing after wireless?
