Authority and Invention: Medieval Art and Architecture

PITFs developed and implemented an experiment in pedagogy to enhance, extend, and deepen students’ engagement with and understanding of the course material by creating a comprehensive website for the course. They re-examined the use of images, introduced videos and readers, and re-designed the presentation of the course content based on provenance rather than following a set weekly topic agenda.

Teaching Challenge:

As a method to enrich the courses’ learning environment, this project introduced several Universal Design for learning concepts such as videos, audio clips, PowerPoint presentations, interactive media, and full text readings as alternative representations of the course content
