In many of today’s higher education institutions, technology has a ubiquitous presence and this is driven by the aggressive growth of mobile technologies. From a student perspective, students try to use technologies to restructure and improve their learning experiences. From a faculty perspective, faculty members try to create innovative, pedagogically sound teaching experiences using different technologies. In the case of the tablet, these ultra-light, multi-functional computers allow faculty to incorporate unique software (apps) into their classrooms and distinctive teaching methods using the features of tablets.

Using the iPad tablet, this workshop will explore the basic functionality of tablets while exploring some of the more intriguing applications/apps that faculty can integrate into their teaching methods.

Research has found that students who experience group work in their college classrooms retain more information, are more satisfied with their classes, and have increased persistence in college (Braxton, Milem, and Sullivan, 2000).

Group work can be an effective method to motivate students, encourage active learning, and develop key critical-thinking, communication, and decision-making skills. Despite the research, many students and instructors still resist group work.

Use these suggestions to help implement group work successfully in and particularly outside of your classroom.

In this exhibition, first-year students of the Visual & Digital Arts Program investigate traditional and innovative approaches to drawing.

Participating in the shift from preliminary study to primary medium, this emerging group advances drawing beyond longtime academic traditions toward defining a creative voice. A debut exhibition for many of the student-artists in the program, this showcase will introduce viewers to a new group of dynamic faces infiltrating the vast field of the visual arts; conversely, Drawing exposes students to the exciting and self-reflexive experience of public presentation that will ultimately contribute to the development of their respective practices.
