  1. The Classroom Presenter Project Richard Anderson University of Washington

  2. Tablet PCs in the Classroom • Instructor Presentation • Student Note Taking • Classroom Interaction • Student engagement • Feedback to the instructor • Student contribution to discussion

  3. Instructor Presentation

  4. Student Applications

  5. Brief Intro to Classroom Presenter • Tablet PC based presentation system • Distributed system • Remote presentations • Classroom Interaction • University of Washington research project • Built on top of ConferenceXP research platform

  6. Find out about audience

  7. Background Questionnaire • Who are you? • University Level Teacher • K-12 Teacher • Instructional Technologist • Industry • Other

  8. Do you have Tablets? • Do you have a collection of Tablet PCs? • No • Yes, HP Tablets • Yes, other Tablets • If yes, how are you using the Tablets? • In the classroom, in a lecture setting • In the classroom, but not in a lecture setting • Out of the classroom

  9. Main interest • Explore Tablet PC based Classroom Pedagogy • Enhance traditional lecture • My experience – University Level, Computer Science Courses • Technology should apply just as well to other levels and other disciplines

  10. Technology Vision • Wireless Classroom • Interaction of Devices • Deployment scenario • Primarily Student Owned Devices • But for now – classroom devices • Concentrate on Tablets • Unique affordances • I’m still betting on Tablets

  11. Classroom Presenter Introduction • Presentation Tool – Ink and slides • Distributed System • Classroom Interaction

  12. Presentation Tool • Digital Ink and electronic slides • Direct projection from tablet • Lecture oriented features • Minimize slide • Whiteboard • Instructor Notes

  13. Distributed System • Synchronized display across multiple machines • Separate projector machine • Distance education • Untethered presenter • Student devices • Integrated note taking

  14. Classroom Interaction • Students send ink back to the instructor • Student submissions scenario • Exercise posed on slides • Students write answer on slide and send it back to the instructor • Instructor selectively displays student answers on public display

  15. Classroom Interaction

  16. Classroom Presenter Project • Fall 2001, DISC Project, Microsoft Research • Spring 2002, UW PMP Class • Fall 2002, Presentation Application, UW • Summer 2003, Major software development • Fall 2003, Classroom Interaction Pilot, USD • 2004, Studies of Ink in Presentation • Winter, Spring 2005, Classroom Interaction Pilots, UW • Summer 2005, Development begins on CP 3.0

  17. University of Washington courses Computer Science Undergraduate courses Usually 15 to 20 tablet pcs Wireless environment Instructor supplied tablets Software Engineering Digital Design Data Structures Algorithms Tablet PC Project Course CS Education Seminar Fourth grade math Classroom Deployments

  18. Classroom deployments • Use of shared tablets • 2-3 tablets per students • Promote student discussion and group work

  19. Classroom Pedagogy • Active learning • Classroom assessment • Discussion around student artifacts • Learner centric design

  20. What is special about Ink? • Derivational activities as opposed to selection • Unanticipated solutions, misconceptions • Flexibility of domains • Symbolic domains • Diagrams • Annotation of existing content • Partial results, brainstorming, scratch work • Expression of individuality

  21. What is special about Digital ink? • Logistics • Capture and replay • Integration with lecture materials • Anonymous

  22. Impact on instruction • Classroom experience is different • Less material is covered • Radical change in lecture preparation • Learning goals first! • Developing pedagogy and resources for this style of teaching will take time • Mix technology supported instruction with conventional lecture

  23. Classroom Presenter Futures • Classroom Presenter 2.0 released September 2005 • 2.1 will be released in Winter 2006 • Development of CP 3.0 underway • Improved ink performance • Enable future extensions of Presenter

  24. Challenges of Classroom Networking • Broadcast networking is a surprising challenge • We generally use ad hoc networking • But sometimes rely on access points • Issues arise with particular hardware/software/driver configurations

  25. Classroom Examples

  26. Digital Design / Data structures

  27. Fitt’s law / Geometry

  28. Software EngineeringElementary school math

  29. Preliminary Results • Positive Student Responses • Digital Design Survey (1-5 scale) • Impact on learning 4.4 • Value of seeing solutions displayed 4.3 • Recommend to other instructors 4.1 • High rate of student participation

  30. Invitation • I’m looking for several faculty members interested in using Classroom Presenter with student devices • Requirement: Availability of Tablet PCs and networking support • Any course level or discipline • Interested: send mail to anderson@cs.washington.edu
