Getting students to actually read outside of class time can be a challenge, however, it is an important expectation in most courses. During this presentation, we will review how IU eText can be incorporated into your class. We will look at how students can engage with the material and benefit from this interactive tool.
Audrey Ricke, Department of Anthropology, School of Liberal Arts, IUPUI
This presentation will provide practical tips on how to enhance class discussions by using image-sharing projection software (i.e. Mersive Solstice) and other active-learning classroom design features that are in Mosaic and similar classrooms. Survey results about students’ perceptions and experiences will be shared to inform best practices for more engaged learning.
1:30 – 2:00 p.m. Concurrent Sessions III

Peer-Led Team Learning (PLTL) is a well-established student-centered instructional model. It has been adapted to the online environment in general and organic chemistry courses at IUPUI using Adobe Connect and Zoom. We will introduce the setup of the courses and discuss the evaluation results of student learning in the cPLTL environment.

Immersive technologies seem to be an ‘ideal’ instrument for teaching, as they combine visual, auditory, and kinesthetic learning styles. Their use, however, remains limited due to technological and methodological challenges. Our project, supported by two IU SOTL grants, evaluate the application of various immersive technologies using mobile devices, namely Aurasma, ThingLink, and 360 images with Google Cardboards. NOTE: Participants are encouraged to bring their smart phones.
