Online Teaching and Learning Strategies
- Location: Online
- Contact: CITS Instructional Development
- Description: In this course, we will introduce you to current research and best practices for both online and blended teaching as well as showcase examples of successful teaching strategies for both methodologies. Throughout the course you will work both independently and collaboratively with your peers to gain valuable online course transition experience and develop strategies in online teaching and learning. As a participant, you will learn both pedagogical aspects of teaching online as well as how to use and incorporate many of the tools available in the myCourses Learning Management System used at UMD. The ultimate goal of the course is to have you begin planning, organizing and building the course you eventually plan to teach. In addition, this course will introduce you to tools that will teach you how to self-assess course site design to ensure student ease of access to course content and to facilitate more streamlined student learning and retention.

RESEARCH COMPONENT OF PHD QUALIFIER EXAM BY: Venkateswaran Sheka
- Location: Science & Engineering Building, Lester W. Cory Conference Room: Room 213A
- Cost: free
- Contact: ECE: Electrical & Computer Engineering Department
- Description: TOPIC: CROWD LOGIC - AN ONLINE CROWDSOURCED GAME TO SOLVE
PROPOSITIONAL LOGIC PROBLEMS
LOCATION: Lester W. Cory Conference Room, Science & Engineering Building (Group II), Room 213A
ABSTRACT:
Crowdsourcing of scientific problems also known as "Citizen Science" has found numerous applications in a wide range of domains. Solving problems such as finding the structure of protein molecules and image annotation have both been successfully performed via the medium of interactive video games. This project designed and implemented an online game in which a player solves propositional logic problems disguised as puzzles. This game seeks to crowdsource automated theorem proving (ATP), which is a class of search algorithms within the field of artificial intelligence. ATP has achieved notable success in areas such as the design and verification of hardware and software as well as the discovery of mathematical theorems. A live demonstration of the game interface will be provided.
NOTE: All ECE Graduate Students are ENCOURAGED to attend.
All interested parties are invited to attend. Open to the public.
Advisor: Dr. Lance Fiondella
Committee Members: Dr. Liudong Xing, Department of Electrical & Computer Engineering and Dr. Firas Khatib, Department of Computer and Information Science
