What is e-Gallery Walk?

What is e-Gallery Walk.

Traditionally, a gallery walk is an active teaching strategy that lets learners walk around the classroom to see their fellow learners’ work/project. This strategy deviates from a lecture-based type of strategy. It’s an interactive technique that taps not only on skills in debating, discussion, writing, but also on higher-order thinking skills such as analysis, evaluation, and synthesis.

Usually, learners will display their ideas/work in the form of charts, posters, models, videos, visuals, etc. similar to how an artist displays their artwork in a “gallery”. Participating learners will then go around the “gallery” to read, analyze, evaluate their fellow learner’s work. They would then provide feedback or offer ways to improve others’ ideas. This feedback can be by verbal comments or written notes on paper.

What is e-Gallery Walk in InteDashboard.

InteDashboard can be used to conduct an online digital gallery walk. Instructors have the option to display teams’/learners’ work/ideas/answers through the “Presentation Mode“ of InteDashboard and participating learners can then read through, scrutinize, and evaluate them, similar to the traditional gallery walks. Feedback from fellow learners comes in the form of votes and digital comments sent in through the app–which can contain the usual text type of comment or a file attachment.

The answers that the Instructor has selected for the e-Gallery Walk will appear on the Presentation screen of the learners. (Notice that their own team’s answer is in an orange-bordered grey box, indicating that they cannot vote or comment on their own answer). Learners can then go through other teams’ / other learners’ answers and comment on them and vote for the best answer to the question above.
