Innovating Education is an opportunity for Dr. Z to discuss with UNI colleagues their visions, successes, anticipations and fears of creating learning environments to address the needs of the first digital generation, the Millennials.
One of the tools that we will be using during this hour-long experience will be a backchannel using the CoverItLive utility. It provides an on-going chat that will allow students to discuss the topics with each other while Dr. Z is exploring the topic.
The presentation will be going from noon to 12:50 CST. You are welcome to join in the discussion if you wish no matter where you are in the world. Please chime in.
You will be able to access the slideshow and resources that are mentioned in the discussion at the Innovating Education wiki.
I work with millinials, and I have to tell you; I do feel like we are from different planets. The speed in which they adapt and move on leaves me spinning. That is part of why I am so excited about this course, I will no longer feel like they are talking a different language!
