Participation and engagement hacks
About this session
We never knew how much we relied on that sea of students’ faces until it was replaced by black squares and empty seats. Those confused expressions, nodding heads, and even students nodding off were a valuable part of the feedback loop that would guide our teaching.
How do we get that magic back?
Hear from Dr Suzanne Bonner and Dr Kelly Matthews about some of the in-class and asynchronous participation and engagement strategies they employ to maintain feedback loops and improve student learning.
