NYU SternPlay – Take the Stairs
NYU SternPlay is a mobile app that utilizes iBeacon location-based technology to promote better collaboration and improve efficiency at Stern. The first phase of the app is an initiative called “Take the Stairs”, a school-wide competition promoting stair usage. Various groups will compete to see who can take the most steps, and in so doing will reduce elevator wait times, congestion and energy consumption. Those who log the most steps on leader boards will be rewarded.

Using a Multimedia Interactive Case Study as teaching model
The Multimedia Interactive Case Study (MICS) consists a series of modular, high quality digital learning modules that expose students to a real-life case while they simultaneously develop a toolbox of specific skills that support analysis and decision making in a myriad of contexts. The traditional case method, in which skills and concepts are taught and subsequently applied and practiced utilizing real life context, is the basis of this approach. Due to its modularity, the MICS can be implemented as a stand-alone course or integrated into other curricula.
Resources include video documentaries, interviews, data sets, maps, infographics, academic research, news archives, and image collections. In addition, technology and the use of an online platform enable interactive tools which provide the foundation to master specific skills and build students’ toolboxes.

Flipping a Large Lecture Class
Introduction to Media Studies is a core freshman course, with approx. 300 students, in Media, Culture, and Communication (MCC), Steinhardt. The professor, Ted Magder, has won several excellent teaching awards both here at NYU and at previous institutions, however was keenly aware that his large lecture needed more student engagement.
GLI worked with Prof. Magder over several months to identify areas of his course which could be ‘flipped’, freeing up class time to incorporate student centered activities. Two of the eight segments in the course were flipped during this initial revised version, with additional segments to be flipped and re-used with other core MCC course in future semesters.
