Symposium for Teaching and Learning with Technology

This recording was made during the 2007 TLT Symposium. In this session, Andy Wiesner and Vicki Williams take a look at the experience of piloting an eTextbook in an undergraduate Statistics course. During the pilot, the course sections were also offered via resident instruction as well as hybrid format. Needless to say, the research project yielded plenty of interesting information. The recording can be accessed through iTunesU or directly through the file attached to this post.

Here is the original session description:

Brett Bixler of Education Technology Services at Penn State interviews Priya Sharma and Ying Xie, from the College of Education's Instructional Systems program about their research into educational uses of blogs.

Over the past year, we have developed several interactive group activities that students in architectural engineering courses perform in the Immersive Construction (ICon) Lab, a facility which contains a large, three-screen display system along with a SMART Board. The students perform small group activities in the ICon Lab, where they develop construction schedules for a project using the SMART Board and then are immediately able to visualize their schedule on the large, immersive display system.

The analysis of human performance of all kinds is increasingly reliant on the use of video data. This session will provide an opportunity for participants to see how video can help students become more analytical about their own performance as well as analyze the performance of others. The context of the talk will be in developing prospective teachers’ understanding of classroom practice. However, the general principles are relevant to any context where students need to understand and analyze human performance, e.g., medicine, music, public speaking, sports, or the arts.
