Enhancing Wireless Technology in Education: Insights from Key Universities

This survey explores the integration of wireless computing in educational institutions such as MIT, Harvard, and Yale. It examines faculty and student laptop usage, classroom technology, and the presence of online tools. Key findings indicate varying levels of wireless accessibility across campus environments, with significant barriers such as limited bandwidth and a cohesive campus strategy. The study provides insights into teaching-learning spaces, lab design, and the interoperability of educational technologies, aiming to improve learning experiences and outcomes through enhanced wireless capabilities.

  3. In Classrooms? 0% - 25% = 6 26% - 50% = 1 51% - 75% = 1 76% - 100% = 5 In Common Areas? 0% - 25% = 2 26% - 50% = 1 51% - 75% = 4 76% - 100% = 6 How wireless are you?

  4. Have laptops? 0% - 25% = 0 26% - 50% = 5 51% - 75% = 3 76% - 100% = 5 Carry them around? 0% - 25% = 11 26% - 50% = 2 51% - 75% = 0 76% - 100% = 0 What percentage of your students:

  5. What percent of your faculty use laptops? • Number 1 confusing question! • Most faculty are opting for laptops, many use for classroom presentations • Other devices, (e.g. PDAs, clickers, etc), limited usage at this point

  6. Augmented with online interactive tools? 0% - 25% = 4 26% - 50% = 5 51% - 75% = 2 76% - 100% = 0 Have a web presence? 0% - 25% = 0 26% - 50% = 1 51% - 75% = 2 76% - 100% = 10 What percent of your courses are:

  7. Interesting examples • Classroom design/Teaching-Learning Spaces • Lab design • Libraries • Peer-to-Peer applications • Video/Web Conferencing • Other infrastructures

  8. Barriers/requirements/issues • Limited or no cohesive campus strategy • Faculty acceptance – rewards, incentive, transparency of technology • Network - bandwidth, especially for off-campus students, campus-wide wireless • Limited collaborative classroom space • Lack of interoperability of technologies • Lack of interoperability of applications: DAM, IR, LMS, KM, etc • Student laptop ownership and mobility
