On September 13, 2024, the Technology-Enhanced Immersive Learning (TEIL) Seminar Series kicked off with an engaging presentation by Dr. Eric Larson, Associate Professor at the Lyle School of Engineering. Known for exploring the latest in technology and education, the TEIL seminars began the academic year with a focus on the connection between classroom learning and aviation training. This first event of the year brought together educators, technologists, and innovators from the SMU community to discuss the growing role of technology in education.
