DigitalVU: Using technology to engage students beyond the classroom walls

Watch video of an Oct. 20 presentation “Using technology to engage students beyond the classroom walls” with Corbette Doyle and Stephanie Milne.

This session provides a hands-on look at Twitter as a tool to encourage students to think critically about course content — before, during and after class ends. To increase faculty comfort with the technology that will be discussed, the audience was encouraged to use the link below to post a question in advance of the session. Poll Everywhere, a cell phone “clicker” application that does not require advance registration, was also used in the session.

The event was part of DigitalVU month at Vanderbilt, co-coordinated by Medical Center Web and Creative Services and University Web Communications with support from the Jean and Alexander Heard LibraryInformation Technology Services and partners across campus.
