Make the most out of facilitating POGIL activities without having to leave home! We know that designing a classroom environment that is student-centered, collaborative, and responsive requires a different set of teaching strategies. This virtual session will give you the tools and confidence you need to run POGIL activities in your classroom, maximize content understanding, help your students grow their 21st century skills, and engage more deeply in subject matter. Our 4-day Classroom Facilitation Virtual Workshop features interactive team activities, as well as small homework assignments (~30 minutes) after each session. Workshop sessions will run from 1:00-4:00 PM Eastern Time on Monday-Thursday.
Explore ways to strengthen your facilitation by:
-
Collecting a variety of tools to help manage POGIL activities in the classroom.
-
Building effective teams and leveraging roles.
-
Developing students' process (21st century) skills through classroom interactions.
-
Exploring methods for assessing team interactions and increasing creativity, student responsiveness, and belonging.
