Description/Abstract
This session introduced participants to the concept of learning experience design and its implementation during the spring 2018 Undergraduate Research Colloquium at the University of South Florida to increase student engagement. Examples of technology uses and design considerations will be presented including: use of the Canvas LMS as a training and communication platform, transitioning from paper-based feedback forms to totally digital, redesign of traditional conference layouts and conference forms, and the introduction of augmented reality to student research posters. Participants will leave with ideas and tools they can implement to take their university’s research conference to the next level!
