This event has now taken place, a write up is available including benefits and drawbacks of using the iPad to teach in lectures
Dr Kit Yates is a relatively new lecturer who has been fortunate enough to have some of his research covered by the media. As such, he has become practiced in explaining his research to a lay audience, which has helped to incorporate various aspects of his research into teaching.
In this talk Dr Yates will share his experiences of using the media to publicise research, research enhanced teaching, and also using iPads in class for teaching, and will try to give a live demonstration of the technology. However, he warns that these are only his experiences and will not zealously suggest that what works for him will work for everyone. Come along to learn what has helped Kit, and share your opinions on how an iPad could work for your teaching.
Kit has explored a number of different ways of delivering lectures with various technologies, including the use of an iPad to deliver lectures, which can be particularly helpful for issues such as inclusivity, and reproducibility in teaching. He also been combining the use of the iPad with lecture capture for his own variety of flipped teaching.
