"Software Training from the Source" Webinars

The Center for Teaching & Learning is sponsoring a series of Webinars called "Academic Software Training from the Source" that we have planned through the summer.

SlideKick - August 19, 11:00 AM
SlideKick is the easiest way to measure and improve the masked-up, blended, and synchronous remote student experiences. Simply upload your PowerPoint and we'll turn it into an interactive slide deck – allowing students to take notes, ask questions, etc. directly from the slides. We then track those interactions for the professor, so you can understand student engagement in real-time. Register for the Webinar.

Webinar Recordings

Each session in the series will be recorded and posted here as they become available.

TurningPoint - held July 29, 11:00 AM
TurningPoint is a comprehensive audience participation platform, not only provides live polling and interactive homework capabilities but also lets you conduct unlimited surveys for insights into the minds of your students. Even better, a simple interface – along with the ability to respond using a cell phone, tablet or computer – means that everyone can get started right away. TurningPoint is being piloted this fall at BYU.
