Peter Dourmashkin, PhD   
Senior Lecturer, Department of Physics  
Massachusetts Institute of Technology In this talk, I will describe the blending of digital online tools with residential learning in an introductory physics mechanics course (TEAL) taught at MIT based on active learning and the studio pedagogy. I will describe how the digital tools have shifted some content delivery to pre- and post-class to maximize in-class learning, while the in-class residential learning is focused on engaging students through practice to develop their conceptual and analytic understanding of the physics content. In particular, I will describe how lightboard videos and immediate answer feedback are incorporated into blended learning sequences.

 **Biography** Peter Dourmashkin is currently Senior Lecturer in the Department of Physics at MIT, specializing in the teaching of first-year students at MIT. His research interests are in Mathematical Physics, Lie Group and Lie Algebra Representation Theory. Starting in 2001, he has been part of the development, implementation, and teaching team for Technology Enabled Active Learning (TEAL), a project that has successfully reformed first-year physics education at MIT.
