New MEF Students
CELT, which stands for the Center for Research and Best Practice in Teaching and Learning, is a special part of MEF University that focuses on helping students and teachers in their educational journey. We show teachers new and exciting ways to teach, making your classes more interesting and engaging. For students, we provide tips and tools on how to learn better and more effectively, especially with digital tools and active learning methods.
Flipped Learning
Flipped Learning is learning most of the theoretical information before class and doing mostly active learning during class. Make sure to go to your classes prepapred by completing the pre-class work your instructors assign.
Blackboard (Learning Management System)
At MEF, Blackboard will be your main learning resource. All your corses will have a Blackboard page. From Blackboard, you will be able to access the pre-class content of your courses, access your online classroom if your lesson is online, follow class announcements your instructors make, and much more. Please watch the two videos below to get started with Blackboard.
You can start learning how to use Blackboard right away from this Blackboard YouTube playlist. Here are a few key videos to get you started from this playlist:
