Description
We all want to engage our students, particularly in this world of short attention spans, addictive technology, and competing deadlines and priorities. Furthermore, active learning methods support nontraditional and neurodivergent learners while also fostering community among the participants. Explore the cognitive science principles behind active learning, then experience them through demonstrations and handouts describing active learning strategies. With this knowledge under your belt, workshop active learning activities you can implement in your classes with other conference attendees!
