Abstract:
The uReply user forum is an occasion for teacher users to share innovative and effective teaching and learning strategies using the technology. The workshop will serve two purposes: 1) explore good pedagogy that promotes teaching and learning in the classroom, and 2) open up a window for teachers to learn tips and skills from each other.
uReply is a web-based and cross-platform student response system (SRS) developed at The Chinese University of Hong Kong. The system was designed to serve campus-wide usage from the very beginning and thus it is made to be fast and extremely user-friendly. Functionally, different question types are supported, including the MC questions, open-text questions, and fill-in-the-blanks. Gamification of the classroom activity is also possible in uReply through the running of a set of specially-designed activities such as speed challenge and group competition.
