• The present paper generally reflects the experiences of 47 female faculty members in higher education and their use of technology to enhance teaching. There are five vignettes from five faculty members at a large university to illustrate how core values about teaching and learning may be embodied in the design of technology-enhanced learning environments.\"The conferencing worked so well for the students. Their assignment was to find a scenario…and a website that could address (and evaluate) that scenario…post this information into a conference and share the information with each other…I was trying to encourage them to interact in that form, believing that…they can…use web-based conferencing as a means of accessing further education and this would give them some of those skills that they can use later…\" TD-1 Faculty of Medicine and Oral Health. In this excerpt from the findings in the study described in this paper, TD represents a growing community of female faculty in higher education, who use technology-mediated communications to model a way of acting in practice and relationship with others. In this paper, the accounts of five of these faculty illustrate how core values about teaching and learning may be embodied in the design of technology-enhanced learning environments.
