Digital Pedagogy Keywords
Dr. Rebecca Frost Davis on
Digital Pedagogy Keywords
This NITLE webinar takes place
on Wednesday May 15, at 2:00 p.m. (EDT). The fee to attend is $100 per
connection.
We
encourage faculty, instructional technologists, librarians and others
interested in exploring the impact of innovative digital tools and methods on
teaching and learning to attend this seminar in institutional teams if
possible.
Description
How have new
digital methods, tools, and networks changed pedagogy? How should we define
such digital pedagogy? What trends and practices in digital pedagogy cross
disciplines? The Digital Pedagogy Reader and Toolkit, a born-digital
publication with Rebecca Frost Davis, Matthew K. Gold, Katherine D. Harris, and
Jentery Sayers as general editors, will aggregate the digital tools being
experimented with by adventurous practitioners and present pedagogical projects
in their original forms. As part of the project, a group of experienced
practitioners will curate sections around important keywords, such as “remix,
“play,” “collaboration,” “race,” and “failure.” Taken together these
significant terms define a new pedagogy for a digital age. For each
keyword, curators will assemble a group of artifacts of innovative teaching and
learning by highlighting particularly effective tools and pedagogical
strategies, while incorporating examples of the resulting student work. This
seminar will give an overview of digital pedagogy organized by keyword,
illustrate the concept by looking at potential artifacts for one keyword, and
invite the audience to contribute to this project by suggesting other keywords
and artifacts.
