Shauna Anderson – mLearning Scholar
Boise State is kicking off its fourth round of mLearning Scholars this spring semester. mLearning Scholars is an innovative pilot project to help instructors take advantage of mobile devices in the creation and delivery of their course during the spring semester. A total of 14 participants from across different academic departments on campus will work to integrate mobile devices into their spring courses.
COBE’s Shauna Anderson in the Department of Marketing and Finance, will be participating. Anderson will use the iPad with her students to help them become comfortable with communication tools used in the workplace. These tools will focus on online video conferencing, collaboration and presentation. Additionally, students will use tools like Google Drive to easily share documents with group members and Google Hangouts to collaborate when not on campus.
