2024 TIMS Team

Our team consists of four adventurous academics from the social sciences, building engineering, design and information technology and an educational technologist. We were brought together by 1) a series of teaching and learning issues such as insufficient learning space, universal demand for asynchronous learning, student’s limited participation in class, student’s changed learning habits – the result of their reliance on online tools – and their demand for timely feedback; and 2) a belief that we can enhance teaching and learning using educational technologies to generate more meaningful learning experiences. We aim to enrich students’ learning experiences both inside and outside the classroom so that they are well-prepared and equipped to cope with real-world problems when they leave the classroom and university.
