By Kelly Briscoe and Dr. Chris A. Heidelberg III

Kelly Briscoe:

Question: What are the benefits of Edutainment?

Dr. Chris A. Heidelberg III

Answer: There are multiple benefits to edutainment and convergence. First, it enables the teacher to transform learners into the stars and producers who ultimately teach my class. Edutainment & Convergence also teaches learners how to lead a class, how to effectively present complex information through innovative approaches, and how to transform student learning into actual primary research. In my class the goal is for the learners to teach one another in their small groups, the entire class in large groups and the world through the Internet. We have received favorable comments with this approach.

Kelly Briscoe:

Question: What data collection tool(s) did you use? And why?

Dr. Chris A. Heidelberg III

Dr. Chris A. Heidelberg III

Answer: I believe Edutainment & Convergence teaches folks how to research, teach, communicate and work as part of a team to create concrete artifacts from abstract concepts. Hence, I use a project based rubric to encourage learning and place it on Rubistar for other educators to use. My students reported loving the empowerment that I gave them by having them teach the last few classes as part of a different type of final exam.
