OFD Webinar: Transforming Learning with Perusall

Learning is a social experience — it requires interactions and interactivity. The coronavirus pandemic has been a good opportunity to rethink our approach to teaching. Moving some tasks to an online format suggests that many activities that have traditionally been synchronous and instructor-paced, can be made asynchronous and self-paced. Through Perusall, I will demonstrate how to move information transfer and sense-making online and make it interactive, promoting social interactions between students. In addition, I will discuss how the platform promotes intrinsic and extrinsic motivation to improve student performance.
