Active Learning in Large Classes: What’s Possible?

This workshop addresses the unique challenges and opportunities of implementing active learning strategies in large, introductory lecture settings, which are crucial as they often mark the beginning of a student's journey into a specific discipline or way of thinking. Research in educational pedagogy supports the effectiveness of active learning, particularly in large classes. However, students in large classes might feel skeptical (or curious!) about engaging in active learning, given that large classes often rely primarily on lecture. In this workshop, we will explore strategies for incorporating active learning into large classes, as well as some techniques for fostering a shared understanding with students about your instructional choices. This session will run for 30 minutes, with an additional 15 minutes reserved for questions.
