The Learning and Teaching Hub is a dedicated Engineering faculty resource for ongoing professional development and communities of practice, instructional consultation and coaching, collaborative learning development, and effective use of learning technology and analytics. Find helpful resources, workshops and meetings, spotlights on academic innovators and more.
Would you like to connect with peers, gain new insights and refine your teaching strategies? Communities of Practice, or CoP, events offer unique opportunities to engage in collaborative learning about topics that matter to you. Each CoP event provides interactive sessions, valuable resources and actionable takeaways that empower you to elevate your teaching and student…
The Fulton Schools Learning and Teaching Hub has several Communities of Practice, or CoP, events running throughout the semester. Join us! These CoPs are open to anyone interested in the Fulton Schools community and meet virtually every month on a range of topics. Generative AI in Teaching and Learning Join us for an information session…
How can faculty integrate emerging technologies to spark innovation for first-year engineering students? Anoop Grewal, an engineering associate teaching professor, recently pioneered an initiative to integrate augmented reality, known as AR, into his FSE 100 Introduction to Engineering curriculum. Students have the opportunity to think entrepreneurially and create their own AR applications through open-ended projects….
To ensure that students in the online mechanical engineering program could still derive substantive practical experiences, faculty members Ryan Milcarek and Josh Wilbur devised novel and forward-thinking virtual laboratories and simulations that not only maintained the foundational learning objectives, but also enhanced students’ ability to navigate uncertainties in data acquisition and analytical processes.
Steve Millman, a professor of practice in the School of Electrical, Computer and Energy Engineering, programmed his own software for his CSE/EEE 120 Digital Design Fundamentals class that randomly generates practice problems and gives students instant feedback. Steve also flipped his courses so students watch lecture videos before coming to class and he now spends class time on hands-on activities and group quizzes.
Alicia Baumann and Haolin Zhu, senior lecturers in the Ira A. Fulton Schools of Engineering, have implemented gamification elements into their engineering courses. Baumann and Zhu added challenges throughout the semester and in different media formats to engage their students’ own learning and motivate them to master course concepts.
The FSE Learning and Teaching Hub has a team of faculty members that serve as teaching leads for the Fulton Schools community. Faculty and instructional staff can connect with the teaching leads to receive support on:
The FSE Learning and Teaching Hub has created a variety of Quick-Reference Guides (QRGs) for common teaching tasks and challenges. Think of the QRGs as condensed highlights on educational topics, meant to offer just-in-time learning to quickly implement pedagogical strategies and provide additional resources for learning.
Alexandra Mehlhase is a software engineering faculty member at the Polytechnic campus who has created a Slackbot called “SparkyBot” to create more engaging, organized discussions in Slack.
MediaPlus will replace MediaAMP/Modalis as the media delivery platform for ASU. Faculty and staff will not need to re-upload or transfer those resources themselves. All existing media, videos and transcripts in MediaAMP are being copied and saved and will begin to appear in MediaPlus in early December. All existing links to MediaAmp content within Canvas will be automatically transitioned to MediaPlus.
Ryan Meuth and Phill Miller are senior lecturers under the School of Computing and Augmented Intelligence who have been creatively reimagining their approach to teaching and learning in the CSE 110: Principles of Programming course.
The Fulton Schools of Engineering Learning and Teaching Hub, or LTH, was announced earlier this year to broaden access to innovative teaching strategies, technologies, tools and resources.
