Overview:
A 20-minute faculty workshop presentation on innovative educational technology applications. To introduce VoiceThread, an alternative to text based discussions, I created & presented this VoiceThread (rather than a slideshow).
Work description:
Identification of best-in-class examples and tutorial resources, screenshot video creation and editing, VoiceThread creation
Learner audience:
Instructors in a higher ed environment
Technology employed:
Camtasia, Google Slides, VoiceThread
Theoretical foundations:
A core belief of my constructivist and connectivist pedagogy is to lead by example. A short EdTech workshop is likely inappropriate for step-by-step instruction. My general approach is to excite learners about pedagogical applications, convey ease of use and then direct them to more detailed resources that allow them to teach themselves (and their peers!)
