Semester of Award: Spring 2020
Materials Awarded: 10.5-inch iPad Pro + Apple pencil
Project Description:
I use the tablet and the stylus to enhance students’ learning experience during online lectures and office hours. With these tools, students can more easily observe the drawing and modification of graphs in real time and the steps involved in the solution of mathematical equations. The ability to record the sessions is also very helpful for students who would like to refer to them later. In addition, I use the Ipad and the pencil to grade exams and comment on electronic homework submissions. They are also very useful for exchanging ideas for research purposes, making it easier to take notes on academic papers and sharing them with colleagues. Overall, the tablet and the stylus provide an efficient way of interacting and communicating with students and collaborators.
