Session Outcomes
By the end of this session, you should be able to:
• describe ways that technology can be used to enhance key learning
principles
• explain how a number of specific technologies can be used to support
active learning in:
– large lectures; and
– small-groups.
It is also hoped that after the session, participants will be willing to
experiment with an expanded range of technologies for student learning for
different pedagogies

Instructions:
1. With the group at your table, you will be assigned one of the following three Web 2.0
technologies: online mindmapping, social bookmarking, Google Reader
2. One person in the group should create an account in the online mindmapping software
called MindMeister This person will type for the group.
3. Review the example you are assigned and together discuss how this could be used within a
course? Use the diagrams in the previous two slides to prompt your thinking.
4. Discuss and decide the pros and cons of the tool for large lecture and small group teaching
contexts.
5. Be prepared to present a summary of these points to the class using the online
mindmapping tool . The facilitator will tell you at the end which person in the group will be
the presenter.
6. If you finish quickly, your group can extend this activity by choosing another technology to
work on.
