Can a Virtual Classroom help learning?
Today the use of synchronous online learning technologies has come of age. One of the main driving forces has been the desire to enable remote learners using online technologies to experience more of the advantages of face-to-face teaching. To this end virtual classroom (VC) software has exploded globally onto the elearning scene. However, many educators who have used this powerful web-based tool, have found unexpected benefits to using a VC in their face-to-face teaching. This year the University of Adelaide is evaluating different virtual classroom software and CLPD is working with staff interested in exploring how to use a VC to help socialisation, content archiving, student engagement, group project management, constructivist knowledge building \x96 in fact any \x93outside the box\x94 pedagogical strategy teachers and the online team can create and manage together.
If you are interested in understanding how a virtual classroom works and can be used in any of these areas, either for remote students or for your face-to-face cohort, then book one of the limited seats for this seminar and come along prepared to contribute ideas. At the seminar you will also have the opportunity to register scheduled VC sessions in your teaching during 2009. |
