Fall 2004 Brown Bag Seminars
Teaching and Testing in a Computer Lab-Do You Know what Your Students Are Doing?
Presented by: Prof. Kyle Lutes, Computer Technology
Location: STEW 318
Date: Wednesday, September 15, 12:30-1:30
Anyone who teaches in a computer lab can attest to the distraction an Internet-connected PC causes. Most likely your class is in a
computer lab because there is some computer software your students need to learn to use. But how do you limit which software they
use while you are giving instruction? And giving exams in a computer lab is even worse. How do you prevent students from using
instant messaging, email, the web, telnet, and FTP to cheat? The Department of Computer Technology (CPT) faculty face these problems
for virtually every course they offer and so created LabMonitor2. Kyle Lutes will demonstrate and talk about how LabMonitor2 can give
instructors peace of mind because it watches what is happening on each students' PC (which applications are run, changes to the file
system, and what network connections are made) so the instructor doesn't have to.

Migrating from WebCT to Vista: What Two Early Adapters Have to Share
Presented by: Prof. Christine Corum, Mechanical Engineering Technology; Professor Gerald H. Krockover, Earth and Atmospheric Science Education
Location: STEW 320
Date: Wednesday, October 27, 12:30-1:30
Have you wondered what it will be like to migrate from WebCT to Vista? If so, you should join us for this Brown Bag in which two
early adapters of Vista, Christine Corum and Gerald Krockover, will demonstrate some of the ways in which they have used Vista in
their courses. They will also talk about why they chose to adapt Vista early, what challenges and benefits they have experienced
in using Vista, and what tips they have for migrating from WebCT to Vista.
