The webinar will last 1 hour, with approximately 40 minutes of conversation with the authors and 20 minutes of Q&A. Registered participants will receive a link to the webinar via email approximately 3-5 days before the event. A link to the recorded webinar will be available after the event.
This workshop will introduce teachers to Process Oriented Guided Inquiry Learning (POGIL) and will explore the benefits of this approach to active learning in the classroom. Participants will experience a POGIL-based learning environment, analyze activities, understand how guided inquiry is structured in a POGIL classroom, and consider classroom facilitation and other issues related to the implementation of POGIL.

The POGIL National Meeting (PNM) utilizes an application system. Applications were due at the end of November and applicants were notified of an acceptance decision in December 2019. Accepted applicants may now register to attend the event.
The PNM is a working meeting intended for active members of the POGIL community to participate in important tasks to further the mission of The POGIL Project, guided by our Strategic Plan. The 2020 participants will work on initiatives which are described here: Strategic Plan Working Groups
The PNM provides opportunities for attendees to interact and collaborate with colleagues in a mix of plenary sessions, parallel sessions, poster sessions, and open working time.
The registration fee includes on-campus housing for Saturday, Sunday and Monday nights, as well as all meals from Saturday dinner through Tuesday lunch. Campus housing is anticipated to be in Liggett House - a modern, air-conditioned, suite-style residence hall where participants will have private bedrooms and semi-private bathrooms.
Financial assistance is available to those who do not have access to departmental/institutional funding.
Building intellective capacity (malleable information processing power) is a primary path toward reducing the achievement gap for culturally and linguistically diverse students (Zaretta Hammond, 2015). POGIL (Process-Oriented Guided-Inquiry Learning) is an active learning pedagogy that provides rich opportunities for expanding students’ intellective capacity. Participants who identify with the struggle of achievement gaps among diverse student groups in STEM courses will observe this effective pedagogy first-hand. They will implement collaborative learning roles used in POGIL lessons and complete three short guided inquiry activities to experience a student’s perspective of POGIL. These shared experiences will provide the basis for subsequent discussion. Teams of participants will practice collaborative learning strategies and engage in the kind of sense-making tasks that increase intellective capacity. There will be an opportunity for participants to discuss their situation-specific concerns. Participants will leave with the knowledge and tools to begin implementing POGIL in their own courses.
