Presenter:

Monique A. Guishard PhD, Associate Professor, Social Sciences; Moronke Oshin Martin, Assistant Professor, Communication Arts & Sciences; Yasmin Edwards, Assistant Professor, Biological Sciences; Maida Landau, Art & Music, All from Bronx Community College

Abstract:

In this interactive session, we will showcase a variety of ways we (Maida, Yasmin, Monique & Moronke) have re-energized student centered learning by incorporating flipped activities and instructional podcasts into our classes. We created content aimed at: reducing student anxieties, clarifying assignment instructions, circumventing feelings of alienation/loneliness in online courses, and reinforcing critical skills and theoretical concepts. In addition to exhibiting our work, we will briefly reflect on the impact teaching with technology has had on our praxis in Art, Biology, and Psychology.
