Making Lectures More Interactive

By Dennis Pierce, Campus Technology

Produced by Su-Kam Intelligent Education Systems (SKIES), named after co-founders Julius Su and Victor Kam, the app enables students to construct an interconnected web of knowledge around a topic as the professor is teaching — turning a traditional lecture format into a shared, interactive learning experience. “Students learn best not when they are passive recipients of content, but when they are actively involved in their own learning,” Su said. With the SKIES app, he said, “teachers and students can be creating and constructing knowledge together. That makes the classroom more lively, engaging and democratic — and just a great place to be. It turns into a better environment for learning.”
