Interactive Lecturing: A Handbook for College Faculty
by Elizabeth F. Barkley Claire H. MajorTips and techniques to build interactive learning into lecture classes Have you ever looked out across your students only to find them staring at their computers or smartphones rather than listening attentively to you? Have you ever wondered what you could do to encourage students to resist distractions and focus on the information you are presenting? Have you ever wished you could help students become active learners as they listen to you lecture? Interactive Lecturing is designed to help faculty members more effectively lecture. This practical resource addresses such pertinent questions as, “How can lecture presentations be more engaging?” “How can we help students learn actively during lecture instead of just sitting and passively listening the entire time?” Renowned authors Elizabeth F. Barkley and Claire H. Major provide practical tips on creating and delivering engaging lectures as well as concrete techniques to help teachers ensure students are active and fully engaged participants in the learning process before, during, and after lecture presentations. Research shows that most college faculty still rely predominantly on traditional lectures as their preferred teaching technique. However, research also underscores the fact that more students fail lecture-based courses than classes with active learning components. Interactive Lecturing combines engaging presentation tips with active learning techniques specifically chosen to help students learn as they listen to a lecture. It is a proven teaching and learning strategy that can be readily incorporated into every teacher’s methods. In addition to providing a synthesis of relevant, contemporary research and theory on lecturing as it relates to teaching and learning, this book features 53 tips on how to deliver engaging presentations and 32 techniques you can assign students to do to support their learning during your lecture. The tips and techniques can be used across instructional methods and academic disciplines both onsite (including small lectures and large lecture halls) as well as in online courses. This book is a focused, up-to-date resource that draws on collective wisdom from scholarship and practice. It will become a well-used and welcome addition for everyone dedicated to effective teaching in higher education.

Interactive Multimedia Learning
by Johannes KonertThis book introduces new concepts and mechanisms regarding the usage of both social media interactions and artifacts for peer education in digital educational games. Digital games in general, and digital educational games in particular, represent an area with a high potential for interdisciplinary innovation, not only from an information technology standpoint, but also from social science, psychological and didactic perspectives. This book presents an interdisciplinary approach to educational games, which is centered on information technology and aims at: (1) improving digital management by focusing on the exchange of learning outcomes and solution assessment in a peer-to-peer network of learners; (2) achieving digital implementation by using forms of interaction to change the course of educational games; and (3) providing digital support by fostering group-formation processes in educational situations to increase both the effects of educational games and knowledge exchange at the individual level. In addition to a systematic analysis of the relationship between software architecture, educational games and social media applications, the book also presents the implemented IT systems' architectures and algorithmic solutions as well as the resulting applicable evaluation findings from the field of interactive multimedia learning.

Interactive Storytelling: Developing Inclusive Stories for Children and Adults
by Keith ParkInteractive storytelling, where the story is spoken or chanted, began as a way to include individuals with severe and profound learning disabilities in larger group activities, whether children at school or adults in day services. The stories are performed in call-and-response - one person calls out a line and the rest of the group respond either by calling back the same line or by calling out a pre-arranged response - and require no previous experience in drama or storytelling. They can be performed anywhere, by anyone. Various stories are explored, ranging from folktales and pantomime to poetry, the works of Charles Dickens, Shakespeare and stories from the Old Testament. Each extract details the full call-and-response for performing the story. This approach to storytelling can be used by teachers and group facilitators in a variety of settings and with any group of children or adults, irrespective of their level of disability. This hands-on manual will enable teachers, therapists, parents and anyone working with children or adults in community settings to use performance and recital to bring stories, drama and poetry to life for people of all abilities. 'This book is a useful resource...is simply written...is especially appropriate for people working with children and adults with speech, language and communication difficulties.' - Child Language Teaching and Therapy.

Interaktion zwischen frühpädagogischen Fachkräften und Eltern in der Kindertagesstätte: Eine rekonstruktive Analyse professionalisierter Praxis
by Annika KallfaßIn den letzten Jahrzehnten ist der Besuch einer Kindertagesstätte Teil der Normalbiografie von Kindern in Deutschland geworden und die Zeit, die Kinder in der Obhut frühpädagogischer Fachkräfte verbringen, hat sich verlängert. Diese Veränderung im generationalen Sorgeverhältnis wirft die Frage auf, welche Beziehungskonstellationen heute zwischen Kindern, Eltern und frühpädagogischen Fachkräften in Kindertagesstätten existieren. Obwohl dem Thema bereits große Aufmerksamkeit gewidmet wurde, ist die Datenbasis über das berufliche Wissen und Handeln frühpädagogischer Fachkräfte immer noch unzureichend. Forschungslücken werden insbesondere in Bezug auf die kollektive, organisationale und performative Dimension beruflichen Handelns festgestellt sowie bezogen auf die Grundfrage, wie Ziel und Güte beruflichen Handelns definiert werden können. In der vorliegenden Untersuchung werden videografierte Elterngespräche in Kindertagesstätten sowie audiografierte Gruppendiskussionen von frühpädagogischen Fachkräfte-Teams aus praxeologisch-wissenssoziologischer Perspektive bearbeitet. Die Ergebnisse sprechen dafür, Professionalisierungsprozesse in der Frühpädagogik nicht nur auf der individuellen Ebene der einzelnen Fachkraft zu adressieren, sondern sie im Zusammenhang mit Prozessen der Organisationsentwicklung anzuregen und zu fördern.
