With the advent of the PC and audiovisual equipment, many teachers began using PowerPoint to deliver lectures. Now, however, technology-savvy students expect teachers to use the Web to deliver course materials and faculty are under increasing pressure from both students and administrators to Web-enable their courses. This work discusses how to help faculty become more proficient with media and technology in the classroom. In particular, we focus on our experiences with faculty in the School of Engineering at Mercer University. For the past three years, our faculty development center has been assisting faculty in learning how to use instructional technology. However, apart from the early adopters, faculty resistance was high due to lack of time, skill, motivation, or equipment. Recently, however, we have seen a dramatic increase in web-enabled courses and use of technology in the classroom. We discuss factors we think contributed to this increase, including the development of individual home page templates and training in a user-friendly Web editor, Macromedia Contribute.","PeriodicalId":202491,"journal":{"name":"International Professional Communication Conference, 2004.

The research uses a combination of surveys of and dialogues with experienced technical communicators in focus groups conducted in three North American cities. Our hypothesis is that we are moving from a linear model of one-way communication, through a richer (though still linear) model of two-way communication between communicators and designers, to a new and richer model of communication as a collaborative process of meaning-making. In the focus groups, we test a hypothetical model of technical communication that reflects this collaborative reality and then brainstorm additional models and metaphors with participants. The first completed session may indicate that the focus of technical communicators is moving away from a narrow suite of deliverables and toward a broad suite of communication roles and processes. The models and metaphors suggested by participants so far indicate little or no emphasis being placed on specific deliverables, or on sequential step-by-step processes. These observations will be further tested in at least two subsequent focus-group sessions.","PeriodicalId":202491,"journal":{"name":"International Professional Communication Conference, 2004.

In some cases, a lack of English proficiency in pilots or controllers has led to disastrous and even fatal catastrophes. While miscommunications between flight crews and air traffic control (A TC) personnel may have been only one aspect of these incidents and accidents, the lack of ability for all parties involved to understand crucial directions via a common English may have been the most important contributing factor leading to these tragedies. Without agreed upon standards for English proficiency and common phraseology, the aviation industry continues to be at risk for future language-related accidents. Air traffic communications often deviate from standard phraseology in emergency situations towards a more conversational style. English proficiency beyond the basic understanding of aviation phraseology may be necessary. In addition, a cultural awareness of the variety of English spoken in countries encountered during flight may help avoid misunderstandings and miscommunications. This work addresses the historical decisions about English language use, language related miscommunications, incidents, and accidents, and current International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) initiatives for revision of language policies.","PeriodicalId":202491,"journal":{"name":"International Professional Communication Conference, 2004.

We cite here representative examples from a proffered list of 35 such crashes which occurred between 1971 and 2002. There have been a great many more near-accidents, incidents that might have resulted in fatalities, but that we 'lucked out' in one way or another. After noting the officialization of English for world aviation in 1951, the contribution of language confusion to pilot\" errors is described. Symptoms of miscommunication are listed. Crashes in which miscommunication was a contributing factor are cited. Examples of the standard phraseology of the FAA, as used by air traffic controllers in the United States, and those stipulated by ICAO2 for international use, are analyzed for confusing elements. These include ambiguities, misnomers, and illogicalities. The problem is further compounded by the inconsistencies between these two standards. Airplane pilots sometimes must make serious split-second decisions, so any possible confusion can lead to disaster. Therefore every effort must be made to eliminate all possible sources of confusion. We have here a list of successive steps of corrective action that can produce surprising results, at minimal cost.","PeriodicalId":202491,"journal":{"name":"International Professional Communication Conference, 2004.
