This three-week, mostly asynchronous course TAKES PLACE IN CANVAS. Participants can expect to spend 4-5 hours per week completing assignments, discussions and readings. Discover a range of instructional techniques related to active learning, which research on learning has consistently identified as a key factor in academic success. Explore these approaches that include checks for understanding, designing learning activities, exploring challenging concepts, managing materials and the classroom, and providing students adequate time to reflect on course content and class materials. The content is designed to support you wherever you are – and whether you teach online, in the classroom or in a hybrid environment – as an active learning instructor.
