If you've already reviewed the case, you know it takes place at
a small state university, where an instructional design has
been called for that:
- Uses cutting edge technologies
- Targets Hispanic High School students interested in agricultural careers
- Will fulfill the University's and the Cooperative Extension Service's
outreach mission
Given these facts, we've invited four distinguished Provocateurs to join us
for the discussion of "Harvesting Cooperation." After submitted an ID case
response, each team participating in the 1997 Discussion Case Event will
receive comments and questions from at least two of the Provocateurs.
Steve Ehrmann
Steve is a consultant with the American Association for Higher Education
where he directs the Flashlight Project and works with the Teaching
Learning and Technology Roundtable Program. Flashlight helps educational
institutions assess their educational uses of information technology. Dr.
Ehrmann was previously a senior program officer with the Annenberg/CPB
Projects and a program officer with the Fund for the Improvement of
Postsecondary Education (FIPSE). His doctorate in management and higher
education is from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Steve will be
reflecting both his own perspectives and those of case player Stewart
Washington. (Steware Washington is the fictional Director of the
university's Technology Resource Learning Center.)

Program, located in Nelson County, Virginia. In that capacity she provides

they will offer their own perspectives and also represent those of case
player Jorge Recinos. (Jorge Recinos is the fictional Director of the
Franklin Area Youth Action Project.)
