SUMMARY:Active Teaching Lab - Learning with Vevox
DESCRIPTION:Participation Without Raising a Hand: Active Learning with Vevox\n\n\n\nJoseph O’Halloran\n\n\n\nHow can we boost engagement and encourage more students to contribute\, especially in a large class? \n\n\n\nIn our October Active Teaching Lab\, Joseph O’Halloran will share how he uses Vevox in his 60-plus-student physics course. Through live polls\, in-class graded quizzes\, and anonymous questions\, Vevox gives students multiple ways to participate\, test their understanding\, and ask for clarification. Joe found that these options led to greater participation\, including more questions from students who might not otherwise raise their hands. \n\n\n\nAlong the way\, we’ll consider how active learning can support AI-aware teaching. By asking students to practice\, apply\, and demonstrate their understanding during class\, instructors can keep students engaged in the work of learning while reducing opportunities to offload that thinking to AI. \n\n\n\nLocation\n\n\n\nThis session will be held in-person and virtually via Zoom. Registration is not required but helps us prepare.  \n\n\n\nJoin via this Link! \n\n\n\nEngelmann Hall\, RM B732033 E Hartford Ave\,Milwaukee\, WI 53211 \n\n\n\n\n\nFacilitators\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegistration Form\n\n\n\n\n                \n                        \n                             \n                        \n                        Name(Required)\n                            \n                            \n                                                    First\n                                                    \n                                                \n                            \n                            \n                                                            Last\n                                                            \n                                                        \n                            \n                        University Email(Required)\n                            \n                        Please provide instructions if you require accommodations for this eventUniversity Appointment?\n			\n					\n					Tenured / Tenured-track Faculty\n			\n			\n					\n					Non-tenured Faculty\n			\n			\n					\n					Staff\n			\n			\n					\n					Teaching Assistant\n			\n			\n					\n					Student\n			\n			\n					\n					Other\n			If you selected Other\, please explain.University Department or Business Unit?How did you hear about this event?
