The awards focus on a different technology each year. This year’s theme — podcasting — resulted in awards to 78 faculty, who will integrate podcasts into their courses and evaluate the effect on teaching and learning. The annual Adaptation Awards program is managed by the Engage Program in DoIT Academic Technology. DoIT provides cash awards ranging from $500 to $1000 for individuals, depending on the annual focus of the award, and instructional technology staff from DoIT and other campus offices provide up to 10 hours of individual help per awardee. http://engage.doit.wisc.edu/ A record number of faculty members at the University of Wisconsin-Madison received 2006 Adaptation Awards to use new technology in their teaching.
