The LMS and the digital fluency of faculty

One of the biggest challenges that faculty developers face is to enhance the digital literacy of faculty. More often than not, use of the LMS is the benchmark by which faculty measure themselves, even though LMS’ have not been successful in “enabling learning”. If our goal is to transform faculty into “digital pedagogues” we first need to have a close look at how the LMS is used. This talk will share the experience of the presenters in tracking and analyzing Blackboard data usage of students and faculty over a period of two semesters at the American University in Cairo.
