32 nd International Conference on Technology in Collegiate Mathematics VIRTUAL CONFERENCE #ICTCM Tech’s affect on Memory – Provide ongoing cumulative review work and assessment. – Make the cumulative assessment an important part of the final grade – Allow for multiple attempts

32 nd International Conference on Technology in Collegiate Mathematics VIRTUAL CONFERENCE #ICTCM Tech’s affect on Focus – Use vocabulary bingo to encourage listening – Call on students randomly – not because they raise their hands – Do not allow students to sit in the last row of seats unless the room is full. – Prepare slides so that you can use a clicker and leave the front of the room. – Expect student’s to familiarize themselves with the material prior to lecture

32 nd International Conference on Technology in Collegiate Mathematics VIRTUAL CONFERENCE #ICTCM Tech’s impact on Reading – Keep online posting to a single page – More topic pages, shorter pages – Expect students to refer to posted material – Instructions / Word Problems should be single line format (not in paragraph form) – Allow students to correct quizzes – Insist that instructions are followed

32 nd International Conference on Technology in Collegiate Mathematics VIRTUAL CONFERENCE #ICTCM Tech’s impact on Assessment – Questions can give the advantage to students that have the right technology – Provide Study Guides for assessment that include MORE than will be on the assessment – For science/math classes present word problems line by line rather than paragraph form

32 nd International Conference on Technology in Collegiate Mathematics VIRTUAL CONFERENCE #ICTCM Tech’s impact on Practice – Students should take detailed notes and the notes are checked – Students rely on calculator and do not write down steps – Cumulative Practice
