This case study examines how technology can be used to support an active learning strategy within face-to-face Chemistry classes. Both in-class polling software and online lectures are used as part of a comprehensive teaching strategy, designed to enable students to develop critical thinking and analytical skills. While in-class polling is not an online process, it is included within this case study to highlight how different types of technology can be used together to effectively support classroom teaching, when integrated with a carefully considered pedagogical approach.

Comment by Simon McIntyre on May 11, 2011 at 7:48pm: Thanks so much Bianca! PLease do email me and let me know if you do use them with others. I am collecting evidence of impact right now for our funding body, and this type of information would be invaluable! Also if you'd like to fill in our survey, I'd also be very grateful! http://svy.mk/e6BP1G

Comment by Blanca on May 11, 2011 at 8:07am: Simon, I just took a look at the project and some of the videos on the website you shared. Worth more time than I have at the moment but just from the two videos I watched, I thought the concept of online learning was professionally articulated. Very powerful speakers. I would love to use this resource to show administrators how online learning / hybrid learning CAN be effective and what you need to keep in mind when doing so. Thank you for sharing!
