Engaging students at a distance and in the classroom can present challenges. Poll Everywhere provides a way to interact with your students with activities designed to ask questions, drive participation in group activities, and encourage students to share thoughts and insights from their phones or computers.

Flip (formerly Flipgrid) is an easy-to-use tool to foster strong connections within a course. This tool is offered to educators for free and can be integrated into your Canvas Course to allow students and you the opportunity to record their responses to topics in fun and innovative ways.

We are excited to announce that registration is open for the Learning and Educational Center’s Teaching and Learning Conference scheduled November 2nd and 3rd, 2022. This virtual event is free and open to all NSU educators (including faculty, students, staff, and administration) interested in advancing teaching and learning research and practice.

Lights, Camera, Action! Would you like to create an interactive video? Sharkmedia has been enhanced with an exciting feature from Kaltura called Interactive Video Paths. Interactive Videos enable you to create a more personalized, “choose your own adventure” learning experience by adding choice-based learning paths to your videos. Interactive videos are well known for their ability to increase viewer’s participation, reduce cognitive overload, maximize retention, and provide real world learning experiences. This workshop will explore pedagogical tips and technology tools for assembling an engaging interactive video path through a step-by-step process that will help you to make your own interactive video learning experience for students.

Mark your calendars for November 2-3, 2022, for the Learning and Educational Center’s Virtual Teaching and Learning Conference! This virtual conference is open to all NSU faculty, administrators, staff, and students who are interested in teaching and learning research and practice.  There is no cost to attend but registration is required.

In line with this year’s theme: Connect, Engage, and Inspire, we have a variety of presentations that focus on active learning and student engagement strategies, use of educational technologies, assessment, online teaching, and others. We hope that you can join us!
