The Summer Institutes on Scientific Teaching is a week-long intensive on the use of active learning strategies to effectively teach in the sciences. In this workshop, we will cover two highlight concepts from this approach. First, we will explore the benefits of using “Formative Assessments” in the classroom, and next, we will introduce the use of “Backward Design” in course planning. Workshop participants will gain numerous hands-on examples of these techniques to use in their own classes.
Audience: All Educators (current and future)
