Initially developed in 2020 in collaboration with the International Hellenic University, the  Revised Framework of Best Practices for Choosing, Using, and Designing XR Learning Applications, has undergone significant revision and refinement as it has been applied in two published studies (Long & Tsinakos, 2021), (Karabina, Long & Garcia, 2023).

For nearly a year, Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) tools have been much more widely available than ever before, and carry with them practical and ethical considerations for every discipline’s ways of teaching and learning. Come to this session to find out what Waterloo’s Academic Support Units have created to help you adapt to this rapidly-evolving phenomenon.

This session highlights the use of a problem-solving worksheet in a large class setting that provides students with individual skill development and immediate feedback while still allowing for easily and effective grade tally.

Join us for this interactive session where you’ll connect with other instructors to collaboratively explore strategies for integrating climate change education and actionable initiatives into courses across disciplines. 

Fundamentals Microteaching Sessions provide participants the opportunity to practice delivering a 10-minute lesson and receive constructive feedback in a supportive, low-risk environment. This session is held online in Zoom.

Join Will Zhao (Stratford School of Interaction Design and Business) and others for a frank discussion, with examples, of how GenAI can be leveraged thoughtfully for teaching and learning. 

The PebblePad Users Group is an opportunity to hear how your colleagues across campus are using PebblePad. This session will feature an instructor presenting their adaptation of the generic SLICC workbook and a student will share how they used mapping in PebblePad to impact their learning.
