A Workshop by Harvard University Professor will be held as follows.
The Waseda University Center for Higher Education Studies hosts the “Faculty Café” series as a place for faculty members to discuss and exchange ideas regarding what it means to “Teach”, and how to improve their teaching. For the First Faculty Café of 2022, which will specially be made open to faculty from other universities as well as the general public, we have invited Professor Eric Mazur at the Harvard University, to hold a workshop on “Transform your teaching with Perusall”.
“Transform your teaching with Perusall”
Abstract: Learning is a social experience — it requires interactions and interactivity. The coronavirus pandemic has been a good opportunity to rethink our approach to teaching. Moving some tasks to an online format suggests that many activities that have traditionally been synchronous and instructor-paced, can be made asynchronous and self-paced. Through Perusall, Eric Mazur, Balkanski Professor of Physics and Applied Physics at Harvard University, will demonstrate how to move information transfer and sense-making online and make it interactive, promoting social interactions between students. In addition, he will discuss how the platform promotes intrinsic and extrinsic motivation to improve student performance.
