Online Learning Projects: Student Produced Podcast - Gary R. Armstrong, Joanne M. Tucker, Victor J. Massad - JITE
Classroom instruction continues to change dramatically with new technology and pedagogy. Faculty aspire to develop innovative programs and creative education while seeking effective teaching strategies that capitalize on emerging technology and invoke student interest and involvement. Research shows that student involvement, hands-on projects, and teamwork are successful pedagogical approaches (Kayes, Kayes, & Kolb, 2005; McKeachie 1994; Passman 2001). This paper describes a creative project for students that showcases technology and student involvement. Additionally, the assignment is consistent with the seven principles for good practice in higher education (Chickering & Gamson, 1987) and provides desired outcomes to business education such as business fundamentals, critical thinking, teamwork, and technology skills.
