Presenter(s):
Christina Chase, Firehoze founder
Description:
Firehoze: A New Online Tool for Posting Teaching Animations and short video tutorials.

Firehoze is a website that provides short online video tutorials for specific math and science concepts for college students. Not a lecture, Firehoze videos cover only single concepts so students quickly get the targeted help they need.

Christina will explain how Firehoze works, how it can be used to augment teaching in your classes, and how you or your teaching assistants can create tutorials that your students can access when they need them. These videos are free to student in your course, and available for a small fee to students from other universities, of which 50% goes to the educator.

If you are a teaching assistant and are interested in building an online portfolio Firehoze is always looking for new instructors. To learn more about how to contribute new content, please visit Firehoze.com.
