This homework is similar to the "preflight" activities used in classes at the US Air Force Academy (and other institutions). Questions one and two require you to write a three or four sentence response. Number three is a multiple choice question. Click in the appropriate circle.

You may change your mind as often as you wish. When you are satisfied with your responses, click the SUBMIT PREFLIGHT button at the bottom of this page.

If you would like to see the answers others have provided thus far, click the RETRIEVE button at the very bottom of this page. Please do not do this until after you have completed this activity yourself.

    NOTE: If you are uncomfortable having others read your responses and attribute them to you, feel free to use a pen name for this assignment.

1.

Does electronic communication technology (e.g., e-mail, the web) make faculty-student relations more personal or less? Please give a few supporting examples.



2.

How interested are you in incorporating technology into your classes? (Please be candid.) Does your interest level stem from any experience (or lack thereof) you've had with educational technology? Please explain.



3.


When students come to class having already thought about that day's material, it makes the biggest impact on...


the students' learning.
the students' attitudes.
the faculty member's teaching.
the classroom atmosphere.
