Streamlining Your Engaging, Interactive, and Collaborative Course into the On...
Many collaborative teaching activities are designed for use in a face-to-face (F2F) course with little consideration for adapting the same activities for an online course. Likewise, many activities are developed for online courses but are not used in the F2F classroom. This presentation provided ideas and ways to streamline your F2F and online courses.
The jigsaw collaborative teaching technique takes a topic and breaks it into multiple parts. In F2F classes, students are given one of the parts and work with other students who have the same part to become “experts.” Then, students break into “jigsaw” groups with members from the other topics and teach each other their information before answering discussion questions. This activity can be used in the online classroom by creating groups in the learning management system by splitting the class equally into their mini-topics. Discussion boards can be used within the groups to answer the same discussion questions as the F2F students. The jigsaw groups need to be larger than you would use in a F2F classroom since some online students are not actively participating.
Likewise, engaging discussion boards used in an online course can be used as homework assignments in the F2F course. The instructor can create bridges to the discussion topic in the class and reference individual student’s posts. Videos created to outline a course project in the online course can also be assigned to students as homework in the F2F course to save time in class for more interactive activities.

Faculty from the Community College of Baltimore County (CCBC), who have a variety of experiences in teaching Learning Communities, presented what they learned. Two or more classes across disciplines are paired, and a group of students enroll in the paired classes. Professors Miller, Pucino, Jones, and Scott shared the integrated approach typical in learning communities with specific suggestions of strategies related to strengthening collaboration, critical thinking, and reflection through classroom activities, online assignments, Intercultural Dialogues, and service-learning. In addition, they discussed how pairing the college’s required course titled Academic Development: Transitioning to College with other courses such as English Composition, ESOL, and Academic Literacy in a Learning Community format had positive influences on student success. Topics included the importance of High Impact Practices (HIPs), such as service-learning and collaborative assignments, to advance student learning and success both within and beyond the classroom; a description of CCBC’s Learning Community Program; the benefits, for both students and faculty, of participating in a Learning Community; ideas for approaches and activities beyond the traditional classroom that can strengthen student learning; and strategies for how to increase critical thinking and/or collaboration in the classroom.
An Experiment in Every Student's "Favorite" Assignment: Forming Groups for a ...
Many of our courses include a group project assignment that represents a significant portion of each student’s grade. We tell our students – and the presenter believes – that group projects are important because when students get into their careers they will often be called upon to work as part of a team or group. Practicing now, before they are in positions that really matter to them from a work perspective, will help them in the future. But no matter what we say, students tend to dread group projects for many reasons, including the way the groups are formed. For the first major group project of her career as an adjunct professor, Ms. Mead wanted to find a method that was deliberative and active – not random, nor completely student-selected, nor totally at her discretion. In her presentation, she described how she found an approach that appealed to her (using some basic technology), applied that approach to her First Year Seminar class, and kept track of the results. She discussed methods of forming groups for group projects; compared and contrasted the success of those methods; explained how she applied the method that most appealed to her and how her students reacted; and how it ultimately worked in terms of the overall success of the group projects. The presenter provided basic data regarding her assessment of the method’s success.
Active Learning Using Kahoot, a Free Polling Software
Active Learning Using Kahoot! is a presentation about using the polling software Kahoot! to engage students through active learning techniques. Kahoot! allows educators to create quizzes, surveys, discussions, and ordering activities to test students' knowledge of course materials. The presenter most often uses the quiz option, as it allows her to see if students have read assigned materials and identify concepts needing further explanation. Kahoot! quizzes can also be reused and include video elements. The presentation demonstrates examples of Kahoot! surveys and quizzes and encourages attendees to try using the platform to promote active learning in their own classrooms.
