Real-time student engagement: Leveraging tablets for faculty and future faculty development

Hosts: Steve Gilbert, Beth Dailey, TLT Group

Speakers: California Institute of Technology, Center for Teaching, Learning, and Outreach (CTLO):

  • Cassandra Horii, Director
  • Julius Su, Program Manager, Community Science Academy 
  • James Maloney, Program Manager, Community Science Academy
  • Holly Ferguson, Program Manager

 

In this FridayLive! session, find out about a new tablet-based, collaborative app and how it is being used to enhance active student learning and support faculty and teaching assistants in adopting new teaching strategies. You'll have an opportunity to examine and discuss data from biology, mathematics, and chemistry courses at both a research university and a community college--a unique partnership spanning a diversity of teaching contexts and student interests. Analysis of modes and types of student participation, student learning outcomes and self-reported experience, and patterns of student engagement in time during class, reveal new insights into how teaching and learning work.
