Clemson University's Collaborative Learning Environment

Abstract

This presentation will focus on the development and operating characteristics of the Collaborative Learning Environment (CLE), Clemson University's delivery system for all academic computing. The CLE promotes active, student-centered learning and collaboration. It is easy to use and universally accessible to more than 36,000 faculty, staff and students through a single userid and password. It provides a consistent suite of tools, services and class workspace for every course section taught. As a means of demonstrating the versatility of this environment we will also pro-vide two classroom applications of this computing environment by professors in the management and psychology departments.
