Keynote - Intentional Tech: Principles to Guide the Use of Educational Technology in University Teaching (CTE7515)

Monday, March 2, 2020 9:00 am - 10:30 am EST (GMT -05:00)

Facilitators: Derek Bruff

Description

Chalkboards and projectors are familiar tools for most university faculty, but when new technologies become available, instructors aren’t always sure how to integrate them into their teaching in meaningful ways. As faculty interested in supporting student learning survey the changing landscape of technology, determining what’s possible and what’s useful can be challenging. In this session, we’ll explore several teaching principles for matching technology to pedagogy, principles that can help us make intentional and effective use of technology in our teaching.
