This event is a one-day workshop with a Fundamentals of POGIL session in the morning, followed by an afternoon of more informal roundtable discussions and birds of a feather sessions. Lunch will be provided.
FUNDAMENTALS of POGIL is an introductory workshop designed for those with limited or no previous exposure to POGIL. Participants will engage in POGIL activities, experience POGIL classroom management, and discuss the path to implementation.
During this session, participants will:
- Identify the essentials elements of POGIL.
- Complete POGIL activities & observe classroom facilitation strategies.
- Incorporate the development of key process (21st century) skills into POGIL lessons.
- Explore the Learning Cycle and the structure of POGIL activities.
