DIVERSIFYING HIGHER EDUCATION: INNOVATIVE TOOLS TO FACILITATE DIFFERENT WAYS OF LEARNING Pasi Virtanen, Jussi Myllärniemi, Heini Wallander, Tampere University of Technology, Finland The objective is to
demonstrate how higher education can benefit from using
unconventional methods such as Web 2.0 technologies. We will
illuminate how the various types of learners (auditory, visual,
kinetic) benefit from using new methods and tools for learning
(traditional teaching settings). We assess the strengths and
weaknesses of these alternative teaching methods and tools. The
paper is based on a case study and a pilot project where different
methods and tools were used and tested in a teaching setting in a
university. |
