An assistant professor in the Indiana University School of Education will collect an international award this week for exceptional technology-supported teaching. The Sakai Foundation has selected Joshua Danish, a faculty member in the Learning Sciences program as an honorable mention winner for its third annual “Teaching with Sakai Innovation Award.” Danish studies how innovative online technologies can be used to support teaching and learning, and his submission for the award was for the design for a course on that very subject. Incorporating tools such as Oncourse blogs and Twitter feeds, Danish engaged the students in continuing discussions about course material to create a richer learning experience than just the face-to-face classroom exchanges.
