| Students are actively engaged at ASU! |
Active Learning, in which students engage with content through "reading, writing, talking, listening, and reflecting" (Center for Educational Innovation, UMN), has shown to lead to higher learning outcomes and levels of engagement. Think-Pair-Share is one popular Active Learning technique that can be applied across multiple subjects and levels. But are there additional methods to foster Active Learning?
In our latest TeachT@lk Webinar (April 5), we highlighted several useful Active Learning techniques that go beyond the tradition Think-Pair-Share. We discussed the implementation of activities, such as Fishbowl, Cases, Jigsaw, or Muddiest Point, and presented possible ways for face-to-face and online classes. If you missed this engaging conversation, please take a moment to review the webinar recording.
If you have a favorite Active Learning technique that you would like to share, please add it by commenting on this post.
