In my teaching, I strive to create a welcoming, interactive, and inclusive environment, in which students are encouraged to share their reflections and experiences of living and working in an information-rich world. I employ a blended learning approach in my modules, combining in-person class sessions with the asynchronous use of online and social media tools to enhance the students' learning experiences. I endeavour to use a mix of methods and media, including online polling and videos, to create an interactive and supportive environment in class, and a structured assortment of multimedia course materials, including digital e-assignments, online quizzes, readings, and podcasts, support students who have different abilities and preferences for engaging with information.
