Ubiquitous presenter: fast, scalable active learning for the whole classroom

Published: 26 June 2006 Publication History

Abstract

In this demonstration participants will experience the potential for fast, scalable active learning in the classroom using standard web technology. Ubiquitous Presenter (UP) enables students with web-enabled devices (computers, laptops, Tablet PCs, cell phones, PDAs, etc.) to interact in (or outside) class in a range of manners and through a modality of their choosing [2,3]. Their input (via a web browser) is immediately and anonymously transmitted to the instructor machine, where it can be reviewed and selected for display to the class via digital projector. The instructor, using a Tablet PC, can additionally comment on, augment, or correct student input real time in class. These activities, along with instructor designed lecture slides and in-class ink are automatically archived on a web server for review after class by both instructors and students.
