300-student lower division history surveys rank at the bottom of
“best experience lists” for professors and students alike. Juliette
Levy started ten years ago to cobble together tools and teams to
drive learning outcomes and make the experience of the large
lecture more satisfying for everyone. In this talk, she will share
lessons from the inspiration behind the learning game Digital
Zombies, the development of Virtual Che — a VR learning module,
and her experiences using and developing digital platforms to loop
back into her scholarship. Find out more about this series.
