"Flipping" Traditional Approaches to Teaching In this session we will be "flipping" the traditional approaches to teaching while offering some examples of ways to incorporate effective strategies. Instructors can use various tools such as Flip or Video Note to create assignments and assessments that involve video responses, such as having students record themselves explaining a concept or giving a presentation. These platforms are popularly used for the Flipped Classroom pedological model of teaching, where students can engage with the content prior to class so they can maximize opportunities of learning during class. Join us for this session as we "Flip" out over these strategies! |

How to Use Retrival Practice to Improve Learning Retrieval Practice is a no-stakes learning strategy with minimal planning required where students pull information out of their brains. Memory is strengthened and forgetting is less likely to occur the more a learner retrieves rather than receives information. In this interactive session, we will discuss ways to implement retrieval practice strategies and how “struggling” can improve learning. |
