This interactive, hands-on workshop is designed to give you concrete, immediately applicable strategies to make the most group work. Modeled in an Active Learning Classroom (ALC), which relies heavily on group work, this workshop will be relevant for anyone working with student groups and/or teaching in active learning classrooms.
Monday, August 24th, 10:00am-12:00pm | FEEDC Room 337 (In person)
Here’s what you’ll gain:
- Hands-on Experience: You’ll experience active learning in groups as a student, so you can immediately see how strategies like gallery walks, jigsaws, and think-pair-share will work in your own classroom.
- Effective Group Work: Discover and practice inclusive and equitable strategies for group work and discussions.
- Practical Assessment Tools: Learn to design in-class activities that effectively assess student learning in an active environment.
- Troubleshooting & Best Practices: Navigate the strengths and challenges of different active learning approaches.
New and experienced ALC faculty are encouraged to join!Â
NOTE: This orientation to teaching in an ALCs will be held in Ferland Room 337. This is an active learning classroom in Ferland, the Engineering building, NOT Fernald, where CITL is located.
