 * Creating Media-Rich Learning Environments for Your Students**

The Digital Divide

Do you find your faculty scrambling to transfer their face-to-face courses to online lessons only to have 50% of the students drop the course? Are adjunct faculty tossed online sections days before the first class starts? Have your faculty exasperated the IT Department trying to upload massive media files only to crash the server? The DCCCD Lecroy Center will share how they partnered with an innovative team to meet these faculty demands for engaging video clips and interactive exercises stored offsite with focused learning objectives in mind with a database that has over 2,500 media tools for faculty to bring their courses to life. Presenters demonstrate how educators can easily search for and integrate content into online, hybrid, and face-to-face classes while participants share ideas for implementing video learning objects across their disciplines.
