Abstract
Keeping faculty one step ahead of emerging technologies -- and providing them with the support to manage what often feels like a rising tide of new tools and learning research -- can indeed be difficult. And then there's the delicate balance needed between promoting technology tools and encouraging teaching and learning with technology. Members of the EDUCAUSE community are challenging themselves to take action and work together to generate a network of solutions that reflect "uncommon thinking for the common good." Through focus groups held during the summer of 2008 and with virtual brainstorming and survey participation by the wider teaching and learning community throughout the fall, EDUCAUSE embarked on the task of identifying "The Top Teaching and Learning challenges," with the final list released in January 2009. The true focus of the Challenges project is on knowledge-building: challenging higher education not only to list the issues but also to put the power of collective intelligence into action to address those issues.
