Teaching and Learning

TLC researches and and evaluates new academic technology tools.

Audience response systems allows faculty, staff, and students to poll users in a classroom setting. The instructor running the polling may ask a question, and participants in the room may respond. Depending on the tool, students respond using a handheld device, their smart phone or their laptop.

The Case Studies Program publishes and distributes experiential materials developed by HLS faculty for HLS courses, and encourages adoption of the case study method. Our classroom materials expose students to real-world problems, have a strong discussion component, and encourage hands-on learning and problem solving through a variety of exercises. The Case Studies staff provides end-to-end support for case-related needs.
