"Online and Hybrid Teaching -- Adding Engagement with Web 2.0 Technologies" (14-270)
Linda Weiser Friedman, Associate Dean, Zicklin School of Business and
Professor of Statistics & Computer Information Systems
Distance education models have evolved quite a bit from the 19th century's 'correspondence courses' -- just in time to collide with 21st century pedagogies in which communication, interaction, student engagement, active learning, and assessment are of critical importance. The term Web 2.0 encompasses a wide variety of Web-related communication technologies, such as blogs, wikis, online social networking, virtual worlds and other social media forms. These technologies are versatile, user-friendly, and exactly what today's students are involved with outside of class. This session explores the use of Web 2.0 technologies in developing class materials for online and hybrid classes.
