The 2022-2023 David Letterman Learning Experience\u00a0<\/h2>

The second-year EMDD project teams have hit the ground running as they forge ahead into their final semester in the program. The David Letterman Learning Experience (DLLE) team includes low-residency students Ruthie Grigoletti and Jennifer Criss and on-campus students Alexis Miller, Hayley Burris, Lydia Bertsch, Anshika Singh, Hailey Leonard, and Zainab Aamir. The DLLE is an annual project that tackles a new opportunity space each year, often inspired in some way by David Letterman, Ball State\u2019s most notable alum.<\/p>

The opportunity<\/strong>: Inspired by a quote from an interview with Dave \u2014 \u201cwe are all the same,\u201d \u2014 the DLLE team decided to explore how to foster connections among Ball State students and alumni. Many students on college campuses can feel isolated, despite being surrounded by thousands of peers. This project seeks to show college students that their differences are fewer than their similarities.<\/p>

The research<\/strong>: The group first dove into academic research to examine how to create a sense of belonging, how shared experiences affect people, and how immersive technologies like extended reality (XR) might foster a sense of connection and presence. They also interviewed BSU alumni and current undergraduate and graduate students to gain a clearer understanding of how best to engage the BSU community.<\/p>

The solution<\/strong>: Based on this research, the DLLE team is developing several innovative storytelling platforms, including an augmented reality (AR) app, an interactive touchscreen wall, and a social media campaign. Through the app, users will explore Ball State history through an AR experience that allows them to scan campus landmarks and learn more about them. Users will see how campus has evolved, explore BSU traditions, and learn more about notable Ball State alums. Through the interactive touch wall passersby will explore stories contributed by members of the Ball State community. Stories will highlight the experiences that make being a Cardinal unique. Finally, both platforms will be promoted through a robust social media storytelling campaign. Follow the DLLE on Instagram and Facebook.<\/a><\/p>

While a typical thesis could take hours to present, competing students have a 3-minute time limit. The competition challenges students by making them condense their research findings to be presented concisely to an audience who may not be familiar with the subject.

Initially developed by The University of Queensland in 2008, the contest now occurs worldwide at over 900 Universities across more than 85 countries. To compete, students must compete through multiple preliminary rounds to make it to the final competition. While a typical thesis could take hours to present, competing students have a 3-minute time limit. The competition challenges students by making them condense their research findings to be presented concisely to an audience who may not be familiar with the subject. EMDD students Zainab Aamir and Matt Lowe competed against eight other contestants this year. Zainab placed 1st and won the People\u2019s Choice Award, claiming $1500 for her efforts. She will also represent Ball State University at the regional competition - The 2023 Midwestern Association of Graduate Schools 3MT competition in Chicago, IL! Matt secured the 3rd place award and a $500. Zainab's presentation discusses \u201cUsers\u2019 Privacy Considerations in Virtual Reality.\u201d Her research aims to understand user-centric privacy considerations when using VR headsets and assesses how being more informed affects users\u2019 privacy attitudes. She is working with Advisor Dr. Joshua A. Fisher for this research. Zainab is originally from Lahore, Pakistan, where she majored in Management Science and Computer Science. Her motivation to pursue her graduate thesis on users\u2019 privacy considerations while using VR headsets stems from her interest in usable privacy and extended reality (XR) technologies.
