Beyond Talking Heads: Active Learning Strategies in Online Synchronous Classes In-Person
Ever worry you’re lecturing but your students are hearing “Wah wah wah” as in the classic animated version of Peanuts? In this session, we'll explore techniques that go beyond the basic breakout room, showing you how to create meaningful interactions that keep students thinking, reflecting, and participating. Active learning equals better retention and more student success, even if you’re online. Come prepared to participate! Leave with ready-to-use strategies that will have your students actively learning to Zoom in. All Temple instructors and staff are welcome.
