The Student Mobile Learning Challenge at Walters State challenges students to use their creativity, imagination, and skills to turn classroom knowledge into engaging presentations for other students.  Students can use an app or web tool to turn the class assignments they have already completed into intriguing videos for other students.  Check out our contest (opens in a new window) and see the two files below for details.  Some student will win an iPad at the end of fall and spring semesters.

Mobile learning focuses on faculty and students engaging in new ways of teaching, learning, creating, connecting, and communicating.

The Teaching and Technologies Fellows, formerly Mobile Learning Fellows, (opens in a new window) program encourages faculty to explore methods of engaging students and increasing active student involvement using  emerging technologies and pedagogies. Faculty interested in becoming a WSCC Teaching and Technologies Fellow submit a proposal (opens in a new window). The proposals are evaluated using the Criteria for Analysis for Proposals by a Academic Mobile Learning Subcommittee. Two exemplary proposals are selected each year. After the proposals are selected, the Teaching and Technologies Fellows carry out the plan indicated in their proposal during the following academic year. The Academic Mobile Learning Subcommittee proudly congratulates the faculty selected for the Fellows program for 2019-2020:

Gracie Rossie

Instructor of English

Rubrics allow faculty members to assess difficult-to-assess student assignments and activities; document faculty response to students; justify students' grades; and give students quick feedback.
