But do these goals have to be mutually exclusive? \n\n\n\nNew research suggests that teachers really can have it both ways\, using research-based techniques to strengthen both what students know and their ability to use that knowledge. Many of these approaches fit particularly well with educational technologies\, as well as with newly available AI tools. \n\n\n\nJoin us for an interactive presentation which invites teachers to look at memory in a new light\, highlighting technologies and techniques that help students build a solid base of knowledge efficiently\, quickly\, and with a side order of fun. Concepts presented will draw on the presenter’s book Remembering and Forgetting in the Age of Technology: Teaching\, Learning\, and the Science of Memory in a Wired World (West Virginia University Press\, 2022). \n\n\n\nThis event is co-sponsored by the College Teaching and Learning Science Graduate Program and the Faculty Development Center. \n\n\n\n\nJoin the event on April 10!\n\n\n\n\nUMBC and the Office of Professional Programs are committed to inclusivity and accessibility.

The result – a disengaged learning environment for all. Now more than ever\, faculty need solutions to help them reach their learners in meaningful ways. \n\n\n\nIn this discussion\, Dr. Gannon will share his insights into creating a sustainable presence in the post-pandemic classroom\, accompanied by staff\, alumni\, and current College Teaching and Learning Science program students with diverse professional backgrounds. \n\n\n\nSpeaker Bio\n\n\n\n\nKevin Gannon\, Ph.D.\n\n\n\n\nKevin Gannon\, Ph.D. is the director of the Center for the Advancement of Faculty Excellence(CAFÉ) and a professor of history at Queens University of Charlotte (N.C.).
