BU Teams Up with edX in :60
t's a brave new world in education. So we were thrilled this year to team up with edX, the exclusive MIT- and Harvard-led online learning platform. For the past year, our Council on Educational Technology & Learning Innovation (CETLI) has been [...]exploring and developing our digital offerings. EdX takes things up a few notches. Like the consortium, we're a champion of for-credit classes that mix face-to-face instruction with online work. That means faculty can shift time spent on lectures to one-on-one or small-group teaching, to field trips, or to additional seminars that delve more deeply into topics.

Smashing Pumpkins
On Halloween, the College of Arts and Sciences physics department hosted its third annual Pumpkin Drop at the Metcalf Science Center. The tradition, which involves dropping pumpkins filled with substances from popcorn to paint onto Metcalf Plaza [...]— 70 feet below — is both a promotional and an educational tool, according to department chair Bennett Goldberg, a CAS professor of physics. "We're interested in exciting the community about physics and seeing gravitation in action," he says. "Additionally, we have recorded the motion of each pumpkin as it fell, demonstrating that it falls at a parabolic trajectory. So there is a learning element for the students."
