MCC will host the ITC Audioconference entitled "Using PDA's for Distance Learning" scheduled for Tuesday, January 17 from 2:00-3:00 in the Board Lounge.  Presenters are Jeffrey Kissinger and Frank Barber of the Florida Community College at Jacksonville. The Military Education Institute at Florida Community College Jacksonville has developed two course pilots for the United States Coast Guard, which were launched in April 2005. The presenters will discuss the design for their initial courses, including challenges specific to their particular audience and their learning environment. They will share what they have learned from their first implementation and their current developments. They will address specific concerns of this media platform. They will also provide practical information on the implementation of mobile computing devices into a narrow learning environment and answer questions for the benefit of other distance educators and designers.
