Teaching with Video, Teaching with PlayPosit: Join us via Zoom for the February 7 noon DOLCE
Dear Faculty Colleagues,
You are cordially invited to join us on Friday, February 7th at noon (via Zoom) for our February DOLCE presentations and discussion. If you are unable to join us live on Zoom, please visit The Wheel in the following week to watch the recording.
We will enjoy presentations by two DOLCE speakers.
Psychology Professor Lisa Oakes will speak on “Using video and PlayPosit in Hybrid and Virtual Courses.”
In her talk, Professor Oakes will share insights on teaching with video. She writes: “In this presentation, I will talk about teaching with video and the lessons I have learned about how to create engaging video content and how to use PlayPosit to both encourage students to watch the videos and to engage them in active learning as they watch. I will share my experience using video and PlayPosit in both my hybrid and virtual courses, and even how I have occasionally used them in fully in-person courses to supplement other materials.”
Representing the Department of Communication, Professor Jorge Peña will speak on “Enhancing student engagement in online courses through interactive PlayPosit modules.”
Professor Peña will discuss his experience utilizing PlayPosit to enhance student engagement in online courses. He will share insights on integrating interactive course content and self-assessment modules to improve retention.
This special DOLCE on teaching with video will be immediately followed by a bonus webinar by Stephanie Gates from PlayPosit. From 1 to 1:30, Gates will show attendees how PlayPosit allows educators to create interactive video lessons by embedding questions, discussions, and assessments into pre-recorded videos. If you like, you could also join us just for the 1 PM bonus webinar.
