Abstract

This paper is based on the premise that university faculty will utilize technology when it solves problems they routinely encounter in their profession. It theorizes that the construction of hypermedia case studies by faculty can encourage the extension of basic skills in technology proficiency into high-end production tools. Faculty view both the product and process as beneficial not only to their students' needs but to their own professional requirements as well. A problem-based learning approach is used that both stimulates dialogue across teams representing universities and k-12 schools and allows for individual team enterprise, direction and creativity.
