Thinking and Teaching Digitally: Connecting to the Millennial Learner

 

The Center for Effective Teaching is pleased to announce its first Webinar of the semester. This Webinar looks as if it will be useful not only for faculty, but for all who deal with our technically savvy students. Please join us for this hour-long session.

Tuesday, January 25 from 1 to 2 p.m.

BTC 1033 (CET Computer Lab)

Webinar Description

Today-s students are digital natives with digital expectations. They are coming of age in a Web 2.0 world where Facebook, Twitter and text messaging are the preferred channels for sharing and communicating ideas, but how do we as educators leverage these same social and mobile technologies to increase student engagement and ultimately improve learning outcomes?

Hear from Professor Renee Robinson how Saint Xavier University is doing just that!

This Webinar will cover how both faculty and the institution can leverage Social Media to better:

– Connect with and Engage Millennial Learners

– Identify and Understand Millennial Characteristics and Behaviors

– Re-imagine Pedagogies that Assist Millennial Learning
