Teaching Naked: How Moving Technology Out of Your College Classroom Will Improve Student Learning

by José Antonio Bowen

On This Page

Description

"Technology is profoundly changing education. If students are going to continue to pay enormous sums for campus classes, colleges will need to provide more than what can be found online and maximize "naked" face-to-face contact with faculty. Teaching Naked shows how technology is most powerfully used outside the classroom, and when used effectively, can ensure that students arrive to class more prepared for meaningful interaction with faculty. Jose Bowen introduces a new way to think about show more learning and technology that prioritizes the benefits of the human dimension in education. Here he offers practical advice for faculty and administrators on how to engage students with new technology, while restructuring classes into more active learning environments"-- show less

Bowen paints a picture of the change coming to higher education. He posits that the current model of ever-increasing tuition for a residential college experience will eventually die out. Additionally, he suggests that the trend to more and more online learning will force colleges and universities to adopt this model of learning or die. His solution is to ensure that technology is used in the classroom and that the face-to-face time is spent providing value-added experiences rather than lecturing to dozing students. This is an important read for any faculty member who anticipates being employed at a university beyond 2020.
The text for the summer Engaged Learning Academy, it talked about engaging students and maximizing face-to-face time in the classroom.
