I recently attended Educause 2008 in Orlando Florida. The theme this year was "Interaction, Ideas and Inspiration". I attended several Teaching and Learning sessions. One very good one was by Charles Sorcabl a mathematics professor at Mt. San Antonio College. His topic was A complete Online Class: Course Management, Live Web Conferencing, and Teacher -Made Streaming Movies. He gave several strategies and tools on how to create links in BlackBoard to improve student retention and how to make your class as personal as possible.
Another good session was on having students create their own mashups to personalize their lecture.

Carolyn, Would you detail 2 or 3 of the strategies? How did his students respond to each? What measurable impact did each strategy reveal?
