This article discusses part-time faculty members and the importance of educational technology for these part-time faculty members. Institutions invest large amounts of money in technologies meant to improve students' educational experience and the efficiency with which institutions serve students. The most common technology in which colleges invest is student-management (or "housekeeping") technology: the programs that record and adjust registration, grades, and attendance; create schedules; and assign classrooms. Course management programs, such as Blackboard, WebCT, and SAKAI, have also become more common on campuses over the past decade. These programs permit faculty to incorporate technology into their pedagogy and to deliver instruction partly or wholly online. Many faculty use technology in their research, including that intended to improve their pedagogy. Some faculty members use the Internet to store their materials or make them available to students online, cutting down on paper files, dusty file cabinets, and photocopies. Most part-time faculty have no access to a campus office with a computer, while at some institutions, they may share a computer. Part-time faculty are known as "roads scholars" or "freeway flyers" because they are constantly on the move from one campus to another. Institutions support full-time faculty members' use of educational technology, while part-time faculty get less support, and sometimes none at all. One is left to wonder how institutions of higher learning can justify giving students widely disparate experiences of educational technology based simply on the employment status of their instructors.
