Check any Qs from the async learning. Talk about the plan for the session etc. PPT slides, with some videos, menti etc, b/o rooms and then discussion / collaboration etc. Invite more feedback using menti on how the students feel about the syn sessions. https://padlet.com/catherinechambers2_1/htrtfulzsput78tg/wish/1724446906 2021-09-08 10:06:22 UTC https://padlet.com/catherinechambers2_1/htrtfulzsput78tg/wish/1724446906 I am new to HE and have only thought about presentation as a delivery of a subject by slide point presentation and talking around the subject. How interesting to be able to use various digital technology to be able to engage the student in real time and for it to be immediately interchangeable to maintain engagement lvpugh1 https://padlet.com/catherinechambers2_1/htrtfulzsput78tg/wish/1724451043 2021-09-08 10:09:03 UTC https://padlet.com/catherinechambers2_1/htrtfulzsput78tg/wish/1724451043 When in breakout rooms a structured task rather than unstructured discussions. I have used scenarios on MS Forms with branching options - this is a lot of work in preparation but works well and once done they're a reusable resource. regray3_1 https://padlet.com/catherinechambers2_1/htrtfulzsput78tg/wish/1724454695 2021-09-08 10:11:19 UTC https://padlet.com/catherinechambers2_1/htrtfulzsput78tg/wish/1724454695 Two hours live session mmgayoye https://padlet.com/catherinechambers2_1/htrtfulzsput78tg/wish/1724454954 The first hour will be a presentation of the material (PowerPoints)- but also with little bits of interactions using mentimeter.
