Appealing to visual and experiential learners online.
Last week at the Texas Distance Learning Association, we gave a presentation to a room of over fifty educators and faculty developers from Texas and surrounding states. We had a lot of fun and the presentation was well-received. The following Scribd document captures what we did, leveraging two free web-based platforms to appeal to students who tend to learn more quickly visually and/or experientially. Today’s Teaching Well Using Technology workshop reviewed tools referenced below (Cool Iris, Google Street View) and more (SlideShare, Google Docs). If you missed today’s workshop, we hope to see you in another session soon. If you have questions about effectively using technology in the classroom, or teaching in general, feel free to send us an e-mail!
