Instructional Technology Showcase

Developing & Using Online Lecture Materials for
Language & Literature Courses

Video and other kinds of pre-recorded presentations can be used in many ways to supplement instruction in language & literature courses.  These materials can:

• provide additional help to students who benefit from reviewing on their own
• reach students with different learning styles
• address a question or issue that arises frequently or that is a common problem for students
• be used when class is cancelled due to inclement weather or faculty travel.

Topics can be based on the subject matter of the course (for example, an animated and narrated explication of a poem or film scene by the professor) or procedural (for example, how to use an online dictionary or other language resource).  The presentations can be short (5-10 minutes) or longer (1 hour).

Dr. Grote will demonstrate pre-developed materials that he publishes online for his Greek course.  He will discuss how he designs his presentation, how he incorporates them into his courses, and how his students respond to them.
