LDT Seminar - Week 3 - Class Notes & Pitch Assignment
Did a great “pitch” exercice in class to present ourselves and our Master’s project ideas in 60 seconds + one sentence you want to be remembered by. 2 rounds. Dramatic improvement from after first round of practice and feedback.
In preparation for the class we did the following:
- Interests (learning problems are drawn to)
- Online-blended learning environments
- Best practices in teaching
- Pedagogical strategies
- Curriculum construction
- What you bring to the table that you really want to continue using (skills, content knowledge, strengths, networks, etc.)
- Passion for explaining how things work to others
- Finding new ways of explaining the same concept (Cognitive Pluralism)
- Teaching programing
- Mobile and web development
- Where you want to leverage these talents (learners, contexts, content)
- Higher education setting
- Highly motivated professors
- Computer Science
- One phrase to be remembered by:
- “How to embed pedagogical and curriculum construction strategies into a blended online course publication software.”
Pitch bullet points after feedback from peers:
- I started a mobile app development school and the biggest challenge was to create
- Want to scaffold subject matter experts in their desire to teach others
- Need a PARTNER with experience in teaching online
