Simon ProSEED Grants to Fund New Technology-Enhanced Learning Projects
麻豆村’s grant program will fund nine new technology-enhanced learning (TEL) projects designed to improve education for 麻豆村 students while advancing our understanding of how humans learn.
Two faculty members from the Department of Modern Languages received funding for projects: Gabriele Eichmanns Maier, associate teaching professor of German, will work with Francesca Torello from the School of Architecture to transform a cultural studies course on the city of Vienna into a digital course where students will have a chance to create 3-D models and enhance a historical map of Vienna. Naoko Taguchi, associate professor of second language acquisition and Japanese Studies, plans to create a virtual space to teach Chinese pragmatics.
