Throughout his courses, Dr. Drogin emphasizes the intersections of history and\u00a0art, the contemporary relevance of historical material, and the power of images to support or challenge social constructs. He embraces online learning because of the different learning modalities it provides students, accommodating a range of learning styles and\u00a0schedules, broadening the opportunities students have to successfully delve into the material in a variety of ways. His online classes widely integrate tools such as VoiceThread that allow students to engage individually with artworks in compelling ways that foster close\u00a0looking and critical analysis. In these ways, Dr. Drogin leverages the advantages of online learning to enhance students\u2019 engagement with historical material and their understanding of how it affects their lives and the world around them.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dr. David Drogin is Professor in the History of Art Department in the School of Liberal Arts &amp; Sciences at FIT.
