Event Details - Faculty Development Series: Meaningful Disc. In (and Out of) the Classroom

Intended Audience:   All Faculty: Classroom and Online

Summary:                                                                                                                      

Each of us conduct discussions in our classes to engage students and foster learning. Are there aspects of your class discussions, however, that might need a little something?  Do you have an engagement strategy or two that have proven successful? If you are interested in learning from your peers and sharing your experiences (good and bad), join us for this conversation on best practice class discussion strategies with an eye toward: 1) effective facilitation; 2) informal/formal assessment of learning; and 3) student accountability.

Learning Objectives:

Faculty participating in this workshop will be primed and motivated to: impart proven engagement strategies to colleagues; devise innovative discussions strategies that effectively engage students; and develop measurable strategies that informally (formative) and formally (summative) assess student learning.
