USG Teaching & Learning Conference: Best Practices for Promoting Engaged Student

Doreen Sams, Rebecca McMullen, Jennifer Hammack, Robin Lewis

This session will be conducted by a team of Georgia College faculty and students demonstrating a variety of successful creative electronic and mobile media delivery methods that enhance student learning within Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act
(FERPA) compliance. Teaching at the USG's liberal arts university often means the students are attracted to the personaL attention in a face-to-face environment. When creatively infused into today's learning environment, mouse-to-mouse and videoconferencing are adding value to learning by engaging students in active learning experiences. Concurrently, FERPA compliance is the guiding principal of educational institutions and media tools add an extra layer of concern that must be managed. The goal of this session is to provide attendees with a variety of media educational tools that will enhance engaged student learning while being mindful of FERPA.
