Do you use in-class polling, or do you want to try? This is the last chance to be a part of our new Cutting EDge initiative. We are targeting innovative educators at Humber that want to try out something new in their teaching, as part of a research project that we are running.
The basic idea is that faculty get to try out new technology in their classrooms, and we (the CTL) do research on the impact. It’s a way to be involved with research without having to conduct the whole project on your own. The plan is that we will teach faculty how to use three different polling apps, send on-site support each time a new app is used, and do some research with students to see the impact on learning and engagement.
What’s involved:
- Come to a Lunch and learn session next week to learn about 5 in-class polling tools
- Use 3 polling apps in class for 3 weeks each – we will provide on-site support at the beginning of each 3 week block with a new tool
- Come back for lunch to tell us about your experience
- Complete a final survey
- We will also send surveys out to your students
- Monday, Jan. 30, 10 a.m. -11:30 a.m. (North, D236)
- Monday, Jan. 30, 11:30 a.m. – 1:00 p.m. (North, D236)
