    Classroom Techonology: Multimedia & Screencasts to Enhance Learning
    David B. Miller, Psychology Dept.
    Wednesday, January 29, 2014
    11:15am - 1:10pm
    ROWE 321

    In this workshop, I'll focus on the effective use of presentation software, with an emphasis on replacing boring bullet points with multimedia to get students engaged in what you are teaching and, thereby, fostering learning.  These presentations can then go on to provide a basis for creating screencasts, which are narrated videos that can further enhance learning by provideing alternate and/or additional means by which students can access instructional material.
