In a recent conversation with Gabriel Moran he noted that his wife Maria Harris would have been delighted by the new information technologies available today for use in teaching/learning environments. Gabe noted that Maria used to spend hours putting materials on slides and making slide show presentations to use in her teaching. For those of you who knew Maria, can you imagine how she would have made use of the art work now accessible on the web? Even better, what would Maria have done with a Flickr account, game based learning, augmented reality, and 3D printing?
What new information technologies do you use in your teaching?
We will begin the 2015 REA Annual Conference with a Pre-conference Workshop on “Using Technology to Spark the Imagination in Classroom and Online Teaching/Learning.” The workshop is designed for both beginners and those who already have some experience using technology in their teaching. Our presenter will be Kristen Treglia, Fordham University Instructional Technologist. Look for more information about the Pre-conference on this web site in the weeks and months to come.
