The presentation will chronicle the operational obstacles (by administration and faculty) to construction of an integrated learning community in an otherwise fairly innovative science/engineering universityÑwith strategies to overcome those obstacles. Then in a second part, the presentation will illustrate the successes and drawbacks of building a curriculum around interdisciplinary group projects that utilize wireless, interactive technologies while pushing almost all learning into small group interactive modes. Finally, outside financed, independent assessment of the tutorial will be presented.
