If you haven’t looked lately, you should check out the Research section on the Mosaic website. We have recently updated this area of the Mosaic website to keep up with the latest scholarship that Mosaic Fellows and Mosaic Staff continue to produce. Let me outline a few of the most significant additions:
Publications:
On the publications page we list publications from Mosaic Fellows, Mosaic Staff, and other Indiana University faculty since the launch of the Initiative. In 2019 alone, Mosaic Fellows have produced several peer-reviewed publications on active learning and active learning classrooms.
Highlights from the Mosaic Fellows:
-
- The Journal of Teaching and Learning with Technology recently published a special edition on learning spaces. Four Senior Mosaic Fellows (Andre Buchenot, Gina Gibau, Modupe Labode, and Tanya Perkins) shared their discipline-specific research on different ways that learning spaces influenced their teaching and their students’ learning experiences:
- Buchenot, A., & Roman, T. (2019). Reframing Writing Instruction in Physical Learning Environments: Making Connections Between Digital and Nondigital Technologies. Journal of Teaching and Learning with Technology, 8(1), 87-98.
- Gibau, G., Kissel, F., & Labode, M. (2019). Starting with the Space: Integrating Learning Spaces and Technologies. Journal of Teaching and Learning with Technology, 8(1), 17-32.
- Perkins, T. (2019). Strang(er) Places: Collaborative Creativity in Real and Virtual Spaces. Journal of Teaching and Learning with Technology, 8(1), 99-107.
