Teaching with Technology: Inclusive Learning Environments
The use of technology is endemic to much of management education but can be used passively and ineffectively or actively and powerfully to support program learning outcomes. Technology plays a key role in both face-to-face and online teaching and learning, as well as in the leadership roles and working environments that educators prepare students for. However, technology can be a barrier for some students in the classroom, whether due to individual characteristics and preferences, issues of access, or other challenges. The 2019 call for proposals posed the question, "How can we create more inclusive learning environments?" Technology in the classroom can increase or decrease inclusivity. In our PDW we will visit some of the newest technologies and teaching techniques for using these technologies to support inclusive learning environments. By modelling inclusive behaviors, educators have the opportunity to teach future leaders similar professional skills and attitudes thereby supporting inclusive organizations that effectively use technology for the broadest benefit. Since 1998, this series of Teaching with Technology professional development workshops has explored new technologies relevant to the classroom and the best practices for using technology for teaching and learning. This professional development workshop emphasizes the practical use of technology resources and teaching techniques through demonstration, using presenters' hands-on teaching experience, and is presented in an interactive format.
The presenters this year are:
- Kim Gower
- Terri Scandura
- Stuart Allen
