The First Annual
       Provost's Information Technology Course Development Fund
                                Showcase

Thursday, Feb 20th, 1997
Centre for Academic Technology (Information Commons)
Robarts Library, 4th Floor
10:00 am - 3:00 pm

In 1996/97, following the recommendation of the Task Force on Academic 
Computing, Provost Adel Sedra, allocated funding from the Academic Priorities 
Fund to support the development of course-related software and other 
instructional tools.  Available to all Divisions, this support is intended to 
advance the use of information technology in the University's teaching programs. 
Projects are funded on the basis of quality and impact, as well as the degree of 
collaboration across Divisions.  In 1996/97, 29 projects in seven divisions were 
funded.

On Thursday, Feb 20th, The Centre for Academic Technology is holding a Showcase 
where individuals who received support from the Fund can show their work.  The 
venue will be "poster session" style, with computers provided to each 
participant where they can show their materials.  Of course, many of the works 
will be work in progress, but attendees will get a chance to see the materials 
for themselves, and meet the developers personally.  A booklet describing each 
project will be available.  Refreshments will be served.

We hope to see you there.
