Now that many students carry a single device that can make phone calls, take pictures, record audio and video, store data, music, and movies, and interact with the Internet, how can we use this in teaching? This fall, meet with other faculty to discuss and test ideas and software for using cell phones or other small devices in teaching. We’ll meet once a month, for demonstrations and discussions. Come and share your ideas and learn.
On Tuesday, September 8th at 10 am, we’ll discuss topics and ideas for this semester. In addition, Owen Astrachan will talk about his plans for using Poll Everywhere, a simple polling system that uses student cell phones as “clickers” to gather student responses. We’ll try it out. Sign up to join us!
