Preparing to Teach: Active Learning (Online workshop)
Wed 11/5 • 3PM - 4PM PST
Please join us for a foundational pedagogical training on active learning, a tried-and-true approach to inclusively engaging students as agents in their learning. After reviewing the benefits and principles of active learning, we will explore classroom activities and active learning tools suitable for a range of disciplines, course sizes, and modalities. Following a demonstration of strategies such as in-class polling and think-pair-share, participants will complete an activity to discern active learning strategies suitable for their context and work to identify equity and accessibility considerations for classroom implementation. This online workshop will be facilitated by the Teaching and Learning Center (TLC). Instructors, TAs, and postdocs are all welcome to attend. Register to receive the Zoom link.
The event will be held on Wednesday, November 5, 2025, 3pm-4pm on Zoom.
