Facilitating Reflection on Student Presentations: Using CLAS to Promote Critical Self-Reflection and Online Peer-Review
Bill Gates’ 2013 TED talk suggestion that teachers need “real feedback” in the form of video recordings of their work points to the potential pedagogical value of seeing oneself present in front of a class. In this workshop, I will introduce a new, home-grown UBC tool – CLAS – designed to facilitate commentary on video-recordings.
Facilitating Online Peer Review: Using STUDIORUM to Promote Student Engagement
Research has shown a generally positive relationship between the use of learning technologies and student engagement.
