  In Roundtable Session: 28.089-10 - Varied Perspectives on Student Learning: Student Learning Communities and Personalized, Active, and Interdisciplinary Learning

Abstract

Despite vibrant networks of learners and content around the world that is made possible by social web technologies, the benefits of extended learning communities that expand beyond the immediate boundaries of the classroom remains unseen. This study discusses an inter-cohort collaboration between classes from two universities. Focused on the theme “Learning Without Borders,” the study used a video discussion-grid tool (Flipgrid) to facilitate conversations across classroom communities on this topic. Results from our first iteration showed a positive reception from students.
