Ann Marie describes her use of Thinkspace (video)
Ann Marie found that her students were not able to combine all the information that they learn in other classes to solve the types of problems typical of their profession. She began using paper-based case studies that required students to filter through extraneous information to find the most correct solution. The ThinkSpace environment allows the students to be presented numerous resources and collaborate to come up with a solution. Watch the video to see how Ann Marie uses ThinkSpace to help her students become better problem solvers.
