Dodson Room 302
Irving K. Barber Learning Centre
Join us on January 9 to hear a talk by Associate Professor Garry Hoban, from the University of Wollongong, Australia.
This seminar will present a suite of student-created digital media that can be used to engage students in explaining and communicating content. The digital mediums include podcast, digital story, slowmation, video, and blended media. In addition, a new theoretical framework, called a semiotic progression, will be presented that underpins the quality of learning when students create a sequence of representations resulting in digital media to explain content. The workshop will be supported by a comprehensive website www.digiexplanations.com aimed at making the media creation instructions clear for university students.
