Wednesday, April 13, 2022

A Message from Terri Graham, Interim President, West and Downtown Campuses

Congratulations to Ian O’Toole, professor computer programming and analysis, for the publication of his paper “Slacking for Success: A Post-COVID-19 Approach for Increasing Student Engagement beyond the Physical Classroom, Using Collaboration Tools with Team-Based and Project-Based Learning.”

The paper explores the problem of how to maintain student engagement outside of the physical classroom.

The study was completed prior to the outbreak of COVID-19, and it revealed newly discovered advantages and also some emerging performance limitations for the use of collaboration tools that can be applied to the post-COVID academic environment. Click here to read the paper’s abstract.
