Engaging Activities for Learners: Active Learning Techniques in the Classroom

This event is part of the CTLT Summer Institute, taking place from August 21–25, 2023.

“Active Learning is “”anything that involves students in doing things and thinking about the things they are doing”” (Bonwell & Eison, 1991, p. 2).

Implementing active learning techniques into your classroom can deliver great results in increasing student engagement and motivation. This also involves minimal investment of your time!

Join us for a fun and engaging workshop where you will have the opportunity to:

• Reflect on and discuss how you use active learning techniques in supporting student learning
• Consider impact of active learning techniques on student learning and experiences in diverse contexts
• Discuss key considerations for successfully implementing active learning techniques”

Facilitators:

• Amber Shaw, Lecturer, Vantage Science Stream
