What is Learning Glass?

NYIT Libraries provide access to tabletop learning glass. Learning glass is a new technology that allows instructors to record videos using a transparent whiteboard while maintaining face-to-face contact with students.

Learning glass is ideal for people who want to record videos for homework help, flipped classroom lessons, or just-in-time instruction.

Learn more by watching the video below. If you are a faculty member or student interested in using learning glass, participate in a workshop or email askalibrarian@nyit.edu.

How Does it Support Learning?

Effective use of learning glass can support learning in many ways:

  • Audio and video support effective working-memory capacity.
  • Videos make it easy for students to access the resource outside class time when they are studying or preparing for an exam.
  • Learners are able to control the pace by stopping or replaying a video.
  • Videos can address "muddy points" that surface among your students.

Examples

Learning glass can be used in a wide variety of ways. Here are 3 examples:

  1. To draw scientific diagrams and formulas.
  2. To annotate text and images.
  3. To make notes for any course.

Take a look at the video below. In addition, here are examples in physics and chemistry.

Workshops

Would you like to make short video tutorials using the lightboard technology? The studio is available throughout Summer 2021.
