Conversations with Colleagues: Improved Student Engagement in Higher Education’s Next Normal – Five Adaptations to Explore
Dr. Chris Fulton (CTLE)
Join us for a discussion with colleagues on how technologies might or can enhancing student engagement. In this session we will look at five “pandemic-introduced innovative teaching adaptations” (Glantz et al. 2021) that were identified as effective in improving student engagement, namely: (i) collaborative technologies for sense-making, (ii) student experts in learning and technology, (iii) back channels, (iv) digital breakout rooms, and (v) supplemental recordings.
