About
EdTech seminar is intended to help faculty members raise the quality of their online teaching performance, as well as improve student experience and learning outcomes in online or hybrid environment.
After the pandemic restrictions around the world and the uncertainty due to constant disruption remains, it is certain that
regardless of the evolution of the pandemic or any other crisis, universities will have to evaluate the lasting effects of digital transformation in teaching and learning. Therefore, a number of short-term and medium-term challenges arise for faculty.
In the short term, academics are still facing the challenge of transitioning even more courses to online delivery and further improving teaching performance, learning effectiveness, and student satisfaction. Not all courses are the same and not all courses pose the same challenges when it comes to online delivery. Therefore, the discussion around the
adaptations of a variety of teaching methods for online delivery remains as prescient in the coming months as ever.
For academics, the challenge is to
prepare for hybrid teaching methods combining the power of physical co-presence with the flexibility of online tools. For example, students will expect their campus experience to involve compelling and irreplaceable social learning while preferring digital channels for more efficient content consumption.
At CEEMAN, we constantly monitor the dynamic evolution of teaching needs and best practices from one semester to the next and adapt the EdTech seminar accordingly. Therefore, the 2023 EdTech seminar will not be a replay of the previous editions but a
revamped program targeting specifically the current challenges and those immediately ahead of us. What remains constant is the program’s focus on i
nteractivity and co-creation, and practical
hands-on format with tangible and
immediate application.
