“Two birds, one web-enabled device”: Saving faculty time and engaging students through technology.
With over 70% of universities offering online/distance education courses, faculty face additional complexities when adapting existing materials to fit new learning environments/technologies. Adopting teaching techniques that engage/appeal to tech-savvy students is also a growing challenge for management educators. This session embraces this changing landscape by demonstrating and providing resources on tech-based teaching techniques/technologies that can (1) be adopted in both face-to-face and virtual formats, (2) save faculty time, and (3) enhance student engagement; we close by discussing specific tech-based techniques/technologies that participants can implement in their own courses and workshop ways to address the challenges/barriers that come with adoption/implementation.Author(s):
