Dr Janet Kelly 2:40 p.m. Dr. Janet Kelly

Dr. Janet Kelly has recently begun supplementing her public financial management class with asynchronous content created using the collaboration tool LiveOnline@UT, powered by Saba Centra software. Using voice-over PowerPoint with other media, Dr. Kelly typically develops short (10-15 minute), topic-specific sessions that students can download and reveiw in preparation for class. With LiveOnline@UT, Dr. Kelly can prepare and record content when she is at her best, and her students can access it when they are ready to learn. This convinience also allows them to spend more class time on activities like case discussion or problem analysis.
