This proposal covers several projects for the Jones College of Business. The first is the renewal of the Bloomberg database used in the Financial Trading classes. This service benefits 450 economics and finance undergraduate, master's and Ph.D. students who learn about financial securities trading and financial and economic analyses. In addition, this service provides support for dissertations for both the PhD and the new Master of Finance program. Secondly, we are requesting to renew the student engagement (TopHat) and lecture capture (Panopto) technologies used to deliver flipped and other alternative learning environments. These tools have benefit over 6,000 students taking classes in the BAS building and from many varied disciplines. Last semester student surveys showed that students value these technologies because they help them do better in class, help them learn the material, support adaptive learners and help them review material after class.
