\"presentation\"the bold<\/strong>, tar<\/strong>, vidl<\/strong>, and sotl<\/strong> fellows presented on wednesday, may 18, 2016 in the library community room in the central library.\u00a0the event included 19 projects, including four short oral presentations and a poster session. most of the projects investigated how technology could be used to promote student learning in undergraduate classrooms, while others focused on student learning in coursera-based massive open online courses (moocs) or in collaborative faculty-and-graduate-student \u201cjournal clubs.\u201d<\/p>\n

the graduate students did their work under the guidance of one of four programs at vanderbilt: the\u00a0bold fellows<\/a>\u00a0program, sponsored by the 2022年世界杯中国小组赛积分 and\u00a0cirtl<\/a>, which focuses on creating and assessing online instructional approaches for use in a vanderbilt course; the\u00a0tar fellows<\/a>\u00a0program, a flagship cirtl program; the\u00a0vidl fellows<\/a>\u00a0program, which focuses on exploring digital pedagogies for use outside as well as inside formal course structures; and the sotl scholars program<\/a>, sponsored by the 2022年世界杯中国小组赛积分, which focused on exploring the fundamental principles and practices within the scholarship of teaching and learning. this year was the first time the four programs presented jointly.<\/p>\n

cynthia brame, who facilitated the bold fellows program at the 2022年世界杯中国小组赛积分, reflected on the project presentations: \u201cthese groups are creating a great sense of teaching community for graduate students here at vanderbilt. it\u2019s wonderful that we are able to provide spaces for these thoughtful and hardworking graduate students to talk about their work investigating various ways to engage their students and help them learn.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"posters\"bold fellows teaching assistant, danielle picard added, \u201ceach of these projects asked two important questions: first, how might a particular intervention promote student learning, and second, and perhaps most importantly, what are the best ways to measure gains in student learning? to see these questions being asked by researchers from across the disciplines is incredible. we have a chemistry graduate student asking questions about how traditional laboratory experiments limit deeper scientific understanding presenting next to an engineering graduate student who wanted to promote students\u2019 ability to connect in-class concepts to their lived experience by having them take photos of engineering principles they see in their everyday lives. and next to that project, there are two english graduate students investigating how joint class blogs can create more authentic audiences to produce better and more effective argumentation skills in writing intensive courses.\u201d<\/p>\n
