This interactive workshop will explore how to you can use active and collaborative learning techniques to support both what and how your students learn. Active learning exists on a continuum, and while it does require instructors to decide how best to adopt various approaches, it can be used in a variety of settings to effectively support student development. In this session, we hope to debunk some of the myths about active learning while providing you with tangible resources and strategies for you to consider in your own teaching approaches.

By the end of this workshop, participants will identify how to best select and align active and collaborative learning techniques in their respective contexts, and be able to articulate the major benefits active learning brings to improving the quality of student learning.
