Study Guides Crowdsourced from Student Notes in Real Time

Wednesday, October 01, 2014 | 5:30PM–6:20PM | Meeting Room W307C/D
Session Type: Professional Development

We will describe the first year's use of and impact on students of study guides that are generated in real-time from the aggregated notes students type during class using LectureTools. The resulting words are automatically linked to germane external resources including specific pages of their e-textbooks, Wikipedia, PDF articles, and more.


OUTCOMES: Learn about visualizing the crowdsourcing of study guides based on student note-taking * Learn about concepts in extreme weather through hands-on use of the study guide prototype * Explore how crowdsourced study guides could integrate with other external resources
