Our podcasts provide information about a range of topics including Leadership, Policy and Law, Teaching and Learning, Emerging Technologies, Open Source, Research Computing, Cyberinfrastructure, and Digitial Libraries. http://connect.educause.edu/browse/content/node/691/list/feed Recent library resources tagged with Contributed by EDUCAUSE Learning Initiative; Advanced Networking; and Articles, Papers, and Reports. en http://connect.educause.edu/display/45143 <p>CyberBridges trains graduate students how to use cyberinfrastructure (CI) -- a combination of computing systems, applications, and virtual organizations. Supported by NSF, CyberBridges hinges on the hypothesis that technical training of graduate students will not only lead to more rapid scientific discovery but will also trigger greater CI adoption in academic departments. Students are trained in networking and grid computing and then integrate what they have learned into their research to develop innovative tools or approaches. Due to the success of the initial program, CyberBridges has gone &quot;global,&quot; involving students in China, Hong Kong, and Brazil.</p> http://connect.educause.edu/display/45143#comments Advanced Networking Authentic Learning Cyberinfrastructure High-Performance Computing Instructional Design Instructional Technologies Interaction and Engagement IT Integration Teaching and Learning Contributed by EDUCAUSE Learning Initiative White Papers Articles, Papers, and Reports Fri, 14 Sep 2007 15:53:12 -0500 ckeller 45143 at http://connect.educause.edu http://connect.educause.edu/display/44951 <p>Cyberinfrastructure is not a new technology, per se, or merely a better, faster Internet. While cyberinfrastructure brings together high-performance computing, remote sensors, large data sets, middleware, and sophisticated applications (modeling, simulation, visualization), it also involves people as participants in the generation of knowledge, giving them the opportunity to share expertise, tools, and facilities. Cyberinfrastructure merges technology, data, and human resources into a seamless whole. </p><p>The &quot;7 Things You Should Know About...&quot; series from the EDUCAUSE Learning Initiative (ELI) provides concise information on emerging learning technologies. Each brief focuses on a single technology and describes what it is, where it is going, and why it matters to teaching and learning. Use these briefs for a no-jargon, quick overview of a topic and share them with time-pressed colleagues. </p><p>In addition to the &quot;7 Things You Should Know About&#8230;&quot; briefs, you may find other ELI resources useful in addressing teaching, learning, and technology issues at your institution.
