Description

Demands on today’s faculty in the classroom seem to be constantly growing. No longer are we expected to just "teach our content," but we also need to make sure our students are work-force ready, engaged, supported, and motivated. 

In this session from Quality Matters, the goal is to show you that teaching can still be fun while we try to meet the ever changing needs and expectations of our students. We’ll go on a journey of how a freshman-level majors biology course (100+ students) was transformed from from a typical lecture-based course to an engaging, student-led learning environment. Using Team-Based Learning™ student-led learning during class not only increased, but a sense of community and fostered deeper learning outside of class was built. 
  • Discuss the basic tenets of TBL and how they have been adapted for synchronous online instruction
  • Compare how tools within an LMS can be used to conduct TBL activities online
  • Explore the pros and cons of LMS tools and TBL activities
As participants in this workshop, you will get to experience online TBL for yourself.

The webinar will be live captioned.
