10 Technology Tools To Promote Active Learning & Engagement

Description  Overview The value of active learning is clear. When students are motivated to reflect, analyze, process and discuss course concepts, they report increased motivation, learning, critical thinking, and engagement. Despite embracing the pedagogical value of active learning, creating a classroom environment that supports and fosters active learning is a challenge.

This presentation reviews ten technologies that can be integrated into the classroom to increase student engagement, create interactive lectures, facilitate classroom assessment techniques, and foster active learning. For each technology, we will explore pedagogical applications and considerations for implementation.
