As we head off to the holiday break many of us are thinking about how courses will run in the Spring semester. For some it is logistical question, but for others it may be larger questions of course delivery and project design. I was reminded recently of an interesting article in EDUCAUSE Quarterly on rethinking composition. The article, and a related post in the Prof Hacker Journal, talked about easy ways instructors can use audio to augment their teaching and also how audio can augment student compositional assignments. If either of these sounds interesting to you as you are thinking about your courses check out the articles linked below and then contact us at wpi-ttl@wpi.edu to discuss ways in which we can help!
