Promoting Excellence
UCF's multi-pronged approach to student success with McGraw-Hill Tegrity
The University of Central Florida is the 2nd largest public university in the nation with 58,698 total students in Fall 2011. There are nearly 500 integrated multimedia spaces that are standardized across the 10 regional campuses that include state of the art equipment to maximize the student learning experience. When the institution adopted Tegrity, some of those spaces were adapted to help ensure the success of faculty and students using the solution.
What’s more, the university has implemented a faculty development program that addresses pedagogical issues in lecture capture, provides training for instructors using Tegrity, and serves as quality control for faculty recordings. As a result of these innovative efforts, UCF had 14,177 Tegrity users last academic year—the largest of any institution in the country.

Topics covered will include:
· The history of online classes at UCF
· How classrooms were designed specifically for Tegrity use
· The faculty development program created for Tegrity users
· Challenges and opportunities
Presenters: Don Merritt, Interim Director, Office of Instructional Resources, University of Central Florida, and Dr. Beth Nettles, Lead Instructional Development Specialist, Center for Distributed Learning, University of Central Florida
