Very easy for the
students to work

efficiently and
effectively
Change in pedagogy
_____ lively and interactive
______ able to walk around the
entire classroom, checking
work and instructing
my relations with students is
closer than it used to be
Change in pedagogyStudents do close-text analysis on
whiteboard. I now tend to use more
multimedia texts in class. Students are
more engaged and often search websites
for more information on concepts,
cultural phenomena, text references
which I am discussing with them, adding
to the class’ repertoire of knowledge.
Change in pedagogy
Yes, quite a lot. Class discussion is
immensely enriched by seating
arrangement. Glass boards allow me
to give them tasks for group and
individual participation and students
take pictures of class work and
sometimes post them on Facebook.
