How digital tools can enhance student engagement in higher education
Researchers are studying how student engagement in higher education affects their well-being, using a digital reflection tool.
This is what we shall do
In the study, we will examine how a digital tagging tool for videos can assist both students and teachers in reflecting on student engagement and its connection to well-being. The tool provides visual evidence of student participation in class activities, which can be used as a basis for reflection.
Student engagement is crucial for both teaching and learning. However, the relationship between how students participate in classroom activities and how this impacts their well-being has not been previously explored using digital tools.
Goal
The goal of the project is to enable teachers, students, and others to collaborate over time to increase student engagement in their education and thereby improve their well-being in higher education by:
- Helping university teachers better understand how students participate in their classrooms.
- Helping students explore their own engagement and how it impacts their well-being using the digital tool.
