Description

Research studies strongly suggest that active learning approaches in class help students learn more than lecture alone. But switching from predominantly lecturing to more active formats can seem daunting. How and when do you blend lecture with more active pedagogies? What options do you have for making beginning steps toward less lecture and more active learning? In this session we’ll briefly discuss how active teaching approaches can promote better student learning and model some strategies for incorporating more active learning into lectures. Participants will share their experiences transitioning from pure lecture alone. Lunch will be provided.
