the author’s focus on the use of computer technology in theclassroom. The techniques are guided notes, peer discussions (using Piazza), and gamification(using Kahoot!). The efficacy of the techniques in increasing student engagement with the coursematerial and student understanding is self-assessed through a survey administered to the studentsat the end of the Fall 2019 semester. This assessment method is limited due to the small samplesize studied (nine students), however, the data suggests that the use of these strategies may behelpful in student education. From the assessment, it was found that guided notes wereconsidered helpful by students, and they were particularly helpful for studying. Online discussionusing Piazza was not appreciated
