PLEASE NOTE: This event is a single, one hour event being offered at two different times on February 2, 2026 - either at 12 PM Eastern or 3 PM Eastern.  They are identical sessions.  The Zoom link received in your confirmation email works for either session.  You choose which time you would like to attend.

What are POGIL Pop-Ins?

POGIL Pop-Ins are conversations for early practitioners who are starting to implement the POGIL approach in their classrooms.

Who are POGIL Pop-Ins for?

If you’re brand new to POGIL and interested in getting started, welcome! If you’re experienced and want to share and listen, welcome! If you’re somewhere in between, welcome!

When are the POGIL Pop-Ins?

Four Pop-Ins have been scheduled for Spring 2026. The sessions are open to anyone.  Each topic will have its own registration. You do not need to attend the whole series - you may choose which topics interest you. Each session will be offered at two different times to accommodate different time zones and schedules. 

• Monday, February 2, 12 PM OR 3 PM Eastern: Countering Deficit Narratives through POGIL's Constructivist Learning Cycle
• Tuesday, February 24 at 3 PM Eastern or 7 PM Eastern: POGIL Roles as Mechanisms for Belonging, Agency, and Academic Identity
• Monday, March 23, 3 PM or 7 PM Eastern: Designing POGIL Activities Using Community-Relevant and Culturally Situated Contexts
• Tuesday, April 28 at 12 PM Eastern or 3 PM Eastern: Transparency, Metacognition, and the Hidden Curriculum in POGIL

How are POGIL Pop-Ins structured?

For each hour-long Pop-In, experienced practitioners will be in attendance to lead the discussion. We will initially focus on the topic for the month, however, if other questions about running the classroom are brought up, we will take time to talk about those topics too.
