Teachers are increasingly seeking alternatives to more traditional assignments and activities, such as papers, presentations, and discussion forums. This session will explore several “multimodal” tools that facilitate more creative, interactive, and dynamic pedagogical approaches to teaching and learning activities that can be leveraged by the teacher, or by individual or teams of students. Options covered will range from comparatively simple tools found in Moodle, such as the Glossary and Book, to more complex platforms, including Scalar, Omeka, Story Maps, and WordPress.Lunch will be provided.
