Green IT eLearning Course with eBooks

The IEEE 7th International Conference on Computer Science & Education (ICCSE 2011) is being held in Melbourne (Australia), 14 to 17 July 2012. I will be presenting "A green computing professional education course online: designing and delivering a course in ICT Sustainability using Internet and eBooks". This is about the ICT Sustainability course I run over the Internet for the Australian National University and the Australian Computer Society.
Title: A green computing professional education course online: designing and delivering a course in ICT Sustainability using Internet and eBooks

Author(s): Worthington, Tom

Keywords: sustainable ICT education, postgraduate studies, climate change, greenhouse gas emissions, e-learning, work integrated learning

Publisher: IEEE

Description: Sustainable ICT Courses are being introduced at the vocational training level and more rarely at undergraduate and graduate levels. This paper reports on a graduate level Sustainable ICT Course run for the first time in 2009, as part of a global professional training program. The same course has been run at an Australian university and later adapted for North America by a Canadian university. The course had enrollments from industry based participants from both private and public sector organizations, as well as full time university students, with corporate Green ICT strategies being produced as course assignments. This paper discusses the student population and presents the course structure and assessment. An empirical evaluation of student responses, conducted at the end of the course, has yet to be completed, but some impressions of the differences in responses from graduate students and external participants is presented.
