| Technology use in the physical and online classroom continues to grow, with new applications and opportunities as the sophistication and availability of teaching technology expands. Beyond just educating management students, educators must consider the benefits of increased technology use in positively impacting students’ learning, health, wellbeing, and engagement. Since organizations are held to account for improving the lives of employees and communities, educators should apply the same logic through modeling care and concern in the rationale we use for selecting the technology we use with our students. Implementing technology in the classroom requires additional efforts by the instructor to make sure the technology improves the lives of the students, the surrounding community, and even the instructor’s well-being. This session will demonstrate several technology resources and teaching techniques that can be used to engage students. We will demonstrate how teaching with technology can help students to learn in affirming and healthy ways that increase engagement inside and outside the classroom. This practical session focuses on the use of various teaching technologies, with an emphasis on how the technologies can be used to enhance students’ lives and the lives of those around them, and to model positive use of technology that can aid students as future organizational leaders. Session participants will benefit from the presenters’ ideas and experiences demonstrating several free or easily accessible technology tools from their own positive experiences in the classroom. |
