Digital Frontier
“Students immersed in an increasingly digital world
are seeking richer and more engaging learning
experiences”
“Instructors are exploring innovative ways to use
technology to foster interaction, collaboration, and
excitement for learning”
Engagement
Using a variety of instructional methods "introduces
and element of unpredictability and novelty in the
classroom" - keeping students engaged (Grasha,
2002, p. 216).
