Below you will find links to the recorded sessions from our event on Jan. 11, 2017. We had a wonderful line-up of sessions along with an insightful keynote! To see our agenda, click on the image below:

Participants at this event cycled their way through three sessions. Click on the images below to view the video recordings of each session:

1) Speed Dating with Active Strategies

In this session, members of the Active Teaching & Learning Faculty-Interest-Group (FIG) will share a variety of strategies that you can use. We will also discuss how to further transform your class for dynamic engagement, what some of the common obstacles are to doing this, and how to respond to these challenges.

2) Tantalizing Technologies

Type in “technologies for active teaching and learning” and you will find tons of tools to engage your students with. This session will have you actively engage with a few of these. We will also discuss some of the benefits and limits of using technologies with active strategies as well as recommendations for doing so.

3) Engaging Environments

Active engagement with students really begins and ends with the environments in which we hold our courses, be these online or on-ground. In this session, we will demonstrate and discuss how to make the most of both of these environments. Overall, you should walk away with a better understanding of how to use your course environment to more actively engage with students.

Finally, we hosted a keynote discussion on one instructor's journey from lecturing to active teaching strategies. Click here for the Link to the keynote PowerPoint presentation:
