The dean wishes to find a solution other than adding sections and hiring adjuncts. Since this is a broad question and therefore perhaps not ideal for the listserv format, I would be happy to hear off-list how other institutions may be addressing this problem through course redesign and/or technology. There was a thread in Aug. 2000 that brought up Virginia Tech's Math Emporium as a model for redesigning high-enrollment lower-level courses using technology but I haven't found a recent thread or article on this topic. Thanks! Heather Heather McCullough, Ph.D. Director, Language Resource Center UNC-Charlotte
