Style of teaching
I came across something that I think you may be interested in. At the strategic planning committee we are discussing SSU/UIS legacy. I mentioned a document that I had come across called the “Blue Memo”, a memo send to the campus on December 1970 by the 1st SSU president Robert Spencer. Under style of teaching at SSU, it says “It should need no elaboration to note that faculty members will be expected to make appropriate use of the library and modern educational technology so as to encourage independent study habits among students. This also clears classroom and seminar time for dialog rather than burdening this time with lectures.”Use of educational technology, burdening the time with lecture, this was 1970!
