The POGIL Project is hosting several POGIL Activity Sprint Reviews this fall to help move a variety of POGIL activities in diverse content areas closer to publication—and we’d love your help.
Sprint Reviews held last spring were extremely successful at providing both valuable input to The Project and helpful activity writing insights to the participants. Opportunities for this fall include college-level activities in statistics, introductory psychology, neurobiology, and biology, along with high school activities for chemistry and AP Environmental Science. (Please note that not every content area will be represented on each date.

We invite POGIL instructors of all teaching levels and POGIL experience levels to join as many sessions as they choose—to do something simple but powerful: be a student.
You’ll work through a small set of activities that currently have little or no classroom feedback. These activities were developed by experienced authoring teams and are well on their way—but they need fresh eyes and authentic “student-experience” feedback to reach our high-quality designation.
You do not need to teach these subjects to participate. You’ll collaborate in teams to simulate the student experience and provide electronic feedback on clarity, flow, pacing, and overall usefulness. The activities are meant for students studying this content for the first time and will be accessible to you as a college-educated person.
As a thank you, participant names will be entered into a raffle. For each session you participate, your name will be entered once. At the end of the semester, a drawing will be held and three winners will receive POGIL swag.
We look forward to you joining us for this focused, collegial, and genuinely helpful experience—another way our community supports one another and strengthens POGIL materials together.
Note: Registration for each date closes 3 days before the session. Zoom links and materials will be sent out the day before the session.
