Description

One of the blessings (and curses) of online teaching is all the wonderful tools we have to choose from. How can we efficiently and effectively make decisions on when to use what? Join your colleagues for a virtual discussion of Intentional Tech: Principles to Guide the Use of Educational Technology in College Teaching by Derek Bruff, 2019.

From the publisher: Arguing that teaching and learning goals should drive instructors' technology use, not the other way around, Intentional Tech explores seven research-based principles for matching technology to pedagogy. Through stories of instructors who creatively and effectively use educational technology, author Derek Bruff approaches technology not by asking "How to?" but by posing a more fundamental question: "Why?"

Bring a snack and join in the conversation!

Derek Bruff will be joining us on March 9 to present a session entitled Intentional Tech: Principles to Guide the Use of Educational Technology in Adaptive Teaching.
