Welcome to the Center for Technology Innovations in Education's (CTIE) web site.
We are a research and development center dedicated to the reform of teaching and learning methods through the innovative application of technology.
CTIE operates within the School of Information Science and Learning Technologies (SISLT). SISLT is part of the College of Education (COE) at the University of Missouri-Columbia (MU).
CTIE is home to a range of projects that promote the effective application of technology in education. The staff and researchers that work in the Center have a range of interests and expertise that they bring to these projects. Innovation in CTIE involves technological, educational, cognitive, and social change to improve learning.

| I3 Project Featured in IATS "TechKnowledge" Sept 2005 |
| Posted @ 14:10:00 CST by gary |
Social Networking Tool
The University of Missouri received a $600 thousand dollar grant from the National Science Foundation to develop innovative methods of networking collaboration. The resulting project, Ił—called "I-cubed"—features a Web-based tool that allows entrepreneurs to connect virtually. Currently, it is being run by SISLT.
"I was in the position to broker deals between faculty members or scientists, and engineers who are seeking to be out in the business world, leveraging innovations and federal grant opportunities, and in doing so I discovered that the network for information transfer was really not there," says Mike Nichols, principal investigator on the project and director, Industrial Relations, MU Office of Research. "Even as I talked to people on the campus one person would not know what another person down the hall was doing."
The project, in its third year, can be used with a large population to build teams of people and pull together networks that the users couldn't build on their own.
"We're going to be integrating it with the campus more and more as we move along," says Nichols.
Aaron Moss, systems support analyst, SISLT, says the next phase of the project will make the system more robust. "Right now we're gearing up to start work on version two so we're doing a complete redesign of the system because it was built very quickly to answer important research questions in entrepreneurship." |
