Educause have used a wiki to identify the top teaching and learning challenges for 2009.  The final list, ranked by popularity, includes:

1. Creating learning environments that promote active learning, critical thinking, collaborative learning, and knowledge creation.
2. Developing 21st-century literacies among students and faculty (information, digital, and visual).
3. Reaching and engaging today’s learner.
4. Encouraging faculty adoption and innovation in teaching and learning with IT.
5. Advancing innovation in teaching and learning (with technology) in an era of budget cuts.

Follow the link to view the individual wiki for each challenge:

It’s time to roll up your sleeves and contribute ideas from your vantage point on campus to build a network of solutions around each challenge.  Do you have a reading or a resource to suggest?  Would you be willing to interview colleagues on campus providing a snapshot of how your campus is addressing an issue? Would you volunteer your name as a resource for others to contact to learn more about your campus solutions?
