Abstract

In this demonstration participants will experience the potential for fast, scalable active learning in the classroom using standard web technology. Ubiquitous Presenter (UP) enables students with web-enabled devices (computers, laptops, Tablet PCs, cell phones, PDAs, etc.) to interact in (or outside) class in a range of manners and through a modality of their choosing [2,3]. Their input (via a web browser) is immediately and anonymously transmitted to the instructor machine, where it can be reviewed and selected for display to the class via digital projector. The instructor, using a Tablet PC, can additionally comment on, augment, or correct student input real time in class. These activities, along with instructor designed lecture slides and in-class ink are automatically archived on a web server for review after class by both instructors and students.
