Description

Active listening is essential for helping both us and our students learn. One key to productive listening is the way we plan interactions in class. In this workshop, share in the innovative and alternative methods that people are using to move from lecture to interactive experiences and a meditation on how we evaluate the outcomes produced by this work. Lunch will be provided.
