Date and time
Location
Online Video Conference (Details will be provided by email roughly one week before the event.)
Description
In this webinar, participants will learn how to embrace the power and convenience of using mobile devices to engage students in low-stakes, real-time interactions and conduct formative assessments in the face-to-face classroom. We will introduce the basic functionality of Poll Everywhere—a tool DePaul will be piloting in the 2016 - 2017 academic year. We will discuss best practices for implementing interactive classroom response activities and present case studies from DePaul faculty who have already implemented these mobile solutions in their classrooms. Participants will have an opportunity to experience polling in a hands–on activity from the student perspective and will take away step-by-step instructions on how to create their own activities to use in their classrooms.
By the end of the webinar, participants will be able to:
- Summarize best practices for using classroom response systems
- Create a formative assessment using Poll Everywhere
