Learning Commons, Room 2230

Have you encountered student resistance to your teaching–whether active learning, group projects, or designing more democratic classrooms? One of the reasons these teaching strategies can be such a tough sell to students is that they require more effort on the part of students. Faculty may be concerned about receiving negative evaluations as well as feelings of resentment among students who dislike being held accountable for their own learning. Join us for a workshop designed to provide you with reflection and feedback to help students overcome their resistance to these types of teaching strategies. Leave this session more empowered to lead conversations in your classroom to unite your students around your teaching strategies and get them on board with being accountable for their own learning. Facilitated by Sasha Breger-Bush, Associate Professor of Political Science. Register and get more information here.
