California Educator, December 2015 | Through the Learning Glass

San Diego State University Physics professor Matt Anderson didn’t like turning his back on students in class while writing on a whiteboard

Anderson’s solution: He created Learning Glass. With help from a few of the university’s instructional technology engineers, Anderson developed a transparent glass “whiteboard.” When he writes on the glass with neon dry-erase markers, LED side lighting causes the writing to glow.

“It helps me maintain a connection. It enhances the auditorium setting. And online students love it.”...

Makes Class Time More Engaging

Students say they feel more connected to their professor while watching lectures online via Mediasite versus face-to-face instruction.

ETS News, August 2015 | Learning Glass Wins 2015 Sautter Award

Don Olliff and Craig Bentley of the Instructional Technology Integration (ITI) team were recognized for their work on the Learning Glass

“The Learning Glass is one of the most important tools in online education that we’ve found and presents a number of different advantages,” Don Olliff said. “Faculty can easily draw on it to illustrate concepts, thoughts, or equations, using colors for emphasis and contrast. Students are more engaged because Learning Glass videos feel more personal, like a conversation rather than a lecture. Believe it or not, it’s actually easier for both faculty and us to create Learning Glass videos than other types of videos. It’s a much more relaxed process that also creates great educational content.”... Link to Article

Higher Ed TD, July 2015 | San Diego State University is implementing The Learning Glass Studio to increase student learning

The see-through whiteboard was created by physics instructor Matt Anderson

“Mediasite allows us to deliver high-quality, high-definition video to our students,” Anderson said in a previous statement. “My students felt more connected to me while watching a lecture in the studio versus being face-to-face in a 500-person class, even though most of them are sitting at home watching online via Mediasite.”

California State University system may follow

According to an online description, Anderson uses LED side lighting on low-iron shower glass to create a see-through white board. This approach helps make neon dry-erase markers highly visible and allows students attending the class in person and online to see his face as he solves problems on the board. So that the audience can read what he writes from the other side of the glass, Learning Glass uses software and a mirror to flip the text horizontally... Link to Article

What people are saying

  • “"The Learning Glass has the potential to greatly enhance the effectiveness of instructional video. Our research shows that gesture is critical for learning from online video, yet most videos don't even show the hands of the presenter. Learning Glass adds a whole new channel of communication between teacher and learner, and increases comprehension and understanding. It's a real breakthrough, and I anticipate it will be rapidly adopted."”
    – Jim Stigler
    Psychology Professor (UCLA)
  • “"Dr. Matt Anderson is a very good teacher and he is very kind to help other teacher to improve their teaching like me. I attended his physics class as a visiting scholar for one semester in 2015. I was impressed by his passion in teaching and also by his learning glass system which is a very good system for teacher. I used learning glass for lessons and introduced them to my Chinese colleagues. I hope more and more people can use Learning Glass because it is both good for online teaching and traditional teaching."”
    – Xuefen Gao
    Mathematics Professor (China)
  • “The LG allowed me to fully explain all economic models graphically, while facing students and keeping eye contact with students. I would not have considered teaching the class online without the LG. I believe it is easier for students to understand me, given my accent, if they can see me while I talk and draw. Students feel it provides them with a more intimate setting. Matt has kept on improving the LG over time - always keeping in mind the ability to teach more effectively.”
    – Catalina Amuedo-Dorantes
    Economics Professor (SDSU)
  • “Learning Glass is a game changing solution. We know that video is the new medium of engagement, but not all videos are created equal, and Learning Glass is head of the class. I love the accessibility and direct contact that medium offers. And, the capacity to visualize ideas and messages in real-time and with eye contact engenders a sense of intimacy with the audience that keeps the presentation engaging and personal.”
