Rethinking ‘Lectures’ for the Digital Audience

ltx_960x504

Session 2 will see the implementation, across the entire University, of Echo 360’s upgraded lecture capture tool, Active Learning Platform (ALP).

Digital platforms change the ways students engage with learning and are therefore changing the way we teach. New platforms call for a rethinking of how we deliver ‘lecture content’. It’s not about focusing on the technology itself, but understanding how pedagogy and approaches to teaching can be enhanced and adapted to suit new delivery platforms.

ALP brings with it the capacity to live stream and the ability to turn lectures and tutorials into more collaborative communities of learning through participatory activity.

Over the last couple of years, Macquarie has introduced various flipped and blended learning and teaching approaches where content is delivered through video and other means.

These concepts, approaches, tools and more will be discussed at this LTX event.

Hear from teachers who have successfully utilised these tools to create more engaging, flexible and dynamic ways to engage the students of today.

The event will be live streamed, showcasing the ALP’s features.
