Provost's Teaching and Learning Summit 2014: Engaging 21st Century Learners
Monday, Oct. 27
1:30 - 3 p.m., Reeve Union Room 306
“The “digital” in “digital humanities” and “digital pedagogy” refers less to tech and more to the communities tech engenders and facilitates” http://www.hybridpedagogy.com/journal/digital-humanities-made-me-a-better-pedagogue-a-crowdsourced-article/
This workshop will explore methods and approaches for designing assignments that leverage digital tools for humanistic inquiry. We’ll look at several Digital Humanities assignments as examples. At the same time, the workshop will raise larger interdisciplinary questions. We will talk about when to assess and how to assess digital projects. Much of our work in education resists formulating neat and tidy outcomes, and digital pedagogy continues this tradition. When learning is the goal, space must be left for wonder and experimentation.

Educause’s 2013 ECAR Study of Undergraduate Students and Information Technology showed that students recognize the value of technology and are ready to use mobile devices for academic purposes. K-12 school districts in our area are rapidly moving forward with initiatives to make sure that every student has access to a device. Instructors at UW Oshkosh are also integrating more technology into the classroom such as smartphones, iPads and clickers. This panel discussion involves members of the UW Oshkosh teaching community, UW Oshkosh students, and two representatives from K-12. Each panelist will share their perspectives and examples on the use of “student gadgets” during class. The panelists will also encourage active participation from the audience, so
Bring Your Gadgets! Register here.

The Western Interstate Commission for Higher Education (WICHE) asserts “The landscape of American higher education has changed rapidly in recent years and will continue to do so in the future.” Colleges and universities who want to remain competitive in the 21st Century understand more about the students coming to campus and how they learn. This presentation will explore aspects of WICHE’s findings and provide insight into how shifting demographics will impact the classroom.
