Educational Technology Information & Resources

HEPROC higher education expertise database

This database contains short informational files about people worldwide with expertise in areas of higher education. The files include linked and up-to-date email addresses, to facilitate communication. Where applicable, entries include WWW URLs, so home pages may be accessed. The purpose of the database is to facilitate contact between people concerned with change in higher education.

HEPROC resource discovery page

There are many thousands of Internet resources of interest to educators. Finding them can be somewhat difficult as the databases describing them are located in different places and require different access procedures. This page provides a uniform interface to several important databases. By completing a very simple form, the visitor can learn about resources that may be useful, and receive access instructions. This page is intended to help beginning and intermediate Internet users locate resources.

HEPROC CQI collection

Continuous Quality Improvement is a relatively new concept in the educational environment. It refers, loosely speaking, to an attempt to define progress and measure results over time, making small adjustments in processes. HEPROC is home to an extensive and valuable archive of CQI articles which have emerged from the AAHE's CQI initiative. People curious about CQI, and about change in higher education, will find this archive informative and useful. The archive is searchable and browseable.
