Workshop description
Research shows that engaging students through meaningful activities leads to deeper learning. This workshop will provide you with a toolkit of activities you can use to engage students in your class. You will learn about the concept of active learning and compare it to didactic lecturing. You’ll also uncover strategies for selecting activities to use and implementing them effectively. By the end of this workshop, you will be able to design and implement an active learning activity in your class.
Workshop delivery
This session will take place on the Waterloo campus in Dana Porter Library room LIB-323 (the Learning Lab).
